Listen Later

It takes humility, intentionality, and the power of the Holy Spirit to create a workplace of trust and unity amongst school staff. Hear from members of the team at GDQ International Christian School in Albania about their experiences with navigating conflict.

  • "We want to have the school be a safe place so that people can voice disagreements that they have and know that someone will listen to them." -Lori
  • "One thing that helps to resolve conflict is, on some level, to expect there to be at least different perspectives." -Nate
  • "Continue to build into relationships among the staff so when you have to come with things like that, it's not just negative all the time, but you do have these trust banks to pull off of." -Lori
  • "You really do need to have a culture of unity in place to be able to handle things like this." -Nate
  • "Unless people see you acting in a way that is healthy in resolving conflict and in communicating, then any policy that you have, any professional development is useless." Lori
  • "You have to be able to say, 'This is not against me. Same team!'" -Lori
  • James 1:19
  • "Something that is really helpful for me when I am offended is to remember how much God has forgiven me." -Peter
  • "We have to give glory to God for being our captain." -Nate
