WHY ‘I'M RIGHT - YOU'RE WRONG’ prevents debate on important issues from moving on effectively


Listen Later

This video and podcast identifies how to move forward in debates that have become, or are at risk of becoming a stuck discussion. "WHY ‘I'M RIGHT - YOU'RE WRONG’ prevents debate on important issues from moving on effectively"  looks at the effect of using demonising 'labels' to describe people who we disagree with and how they represent the 'competitive approach' to conflict that never supports effective and useful conflict resolution that leads to learning, change and growth.
