Human Edge with Jennifer Rist

Why Winning an Argument Isn’t Worth It (and the CLEAR Way to Handle Conflict)


Listen Later

Winning an argument might feel satisfying in the moment, but the science shows it rarely leads to real progress—and often damages trust, collaboration, and performance. In this video, Jennifer Rist, coach and consultant for high achievers, breaks down why arguments backfire (spiking cortisol, weakening relationships, and rarely changing minds) and reveals a better way forward using her CLEAR Method™ (Calm, Learn, Evidence, Act, Rebuild). If you’ve ever dealt with a “right fighter” at work, struggled to make your point in high-stakes conversations, or wanted to protect your confidence and influence under pressure, this video will give you research-backed strategies and practical steps to lead with clarity instead of conflict.
