Episode highlights:
๐Ÿ” Why you should be looking for conflict
Have you ever been in a meeting where everyone seems to agree? It might sound great, but sometimes people hold back their true thoughts to avoid creating an argument. Exploring disagreements constructively is an essential leadership skill.
๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ How to create healthy conflict
It's not easy to get used to deliberately seeking out arguments. We're wired as humans to avoid them. But there are a few things you can do to encourage the different viewpoints and make sure you get to the best decisions possible.
โš ๏ธ Avoiding Conflict Pitfalls
But you have to get the balance right, recognize when things are getting too heated and know how to bring things back to a productive level. We'll also talk about the biggest risk (that you can see in the UK Conservative party today!)
๐Ÿ”‘ Conflict: A Leadership Essential
Conflict isn't about fights โ€“ it's about finding where the really important truths lie, how to get at them without fracturing your team's effectiveness. True leadership means speaking up when things are tough and encouraging others to do the same. By embracing constructive conflict, you'll be better equipped to guide your team through challenges and make better decisions.
