What does the incident involving Will Smith and Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars have to do with this episode? Being able to manage conflict and have difficult conversations is a skill and an expectation for those in positions of influence in every organization.  

We are so pleased to have our friend Eric Williamson join Twins Talk it Up to speak to this very topic. Eric Williamson is a Business Coach, Speaker, Conflict Resolution Consultant and the Author of ‘How to Work with Jerks: Getting Stuff Done with People you Can’t Stand.’

We ask Eric to share his thoughts about that incident during the Oscars, being in control of your emotions and the importance of cultivating a healthy organizational culture. Every organization needs to be proactive with their training and in their expectations, especially when it comes to managing conflict and with difficult conversations.

He also trains on applying his LUV Principle, which stands for Listen, Understand and Validate. Also, listen for Eric’s 3-Step process designed for working with jerks and dealing with conflict:

Step 1: Assess the situation.

Step 2: Analyze the situation.

Step 3: Act.
