Do you struggle to have productive conversations with people who have different beliefs? In today's episode, Brandon Gano talks with author, consultant, and entrepreneur Philip Blackett about the importance of respectful disagreement in business.

Key takeaways:

• Separate the idea from the identity of the believer. Don't take criticism of your ideas personally.
• Disagree with the idea, but respect the person. You can disagree without being disrespectful.
• Focus on the merits of the idea. Use facts, logic, and evidence to support your arguments.
• Agree to disagree if necessary. Sometimes you won't reach a consensus, but you can still move forward.
• Maintain a respectful relationship. Disagreements don't have to damage relationships.
