The definition of a “win” is different in high conflict situations as opposed to ordinary conflict. Not recognizing that a win looks quite different can inadvertently escalate conflict or take a few steps backwards. 

In today’s episode, Megan and Bill talk about:

• defining what it means to “win” in high conflict
• do you need to reach an expected outcome to have success
• temptation to keep going when you should stop
• when do you know if you’ve won
• choosing your battles
• avoid opening up emotions 
• focusing on keeping people focused on thinking and doing
