Masterclass: Uncovering and Resolving Team Tension

---Note: Enrollment for our upcoming June 22 session is now closed. To join a waitlist and be notified if new seats become available, please complete this form.---

According to a 2008 report, 85% of employees experienced some form of conflict in the workplace. However, despite knowing that conflict is an inevitable part of any team dynamic, the default behavior is often to wait until the moment the conflict arises to address it. 

In this exclusive masterclass, we’ll explore another, more powerful approach: proactive disagreement planning. 

While in an objective frame of mind, you will identify existing and potential sources of team tension and determine how to communicate these problems to their team. Conflict-resolution expert Natalie Garramone will guide us through a reflection on these tension points, and help uncover underlying assumptions and emotions that may be driving them. 

No matter your role, this session will empower you to transform how your team approaches conflict in order to drive collective growth, resilience, and productivity. 

You’ll leave with a greater understanding of

• How assumptions can contribute to unproductive team dynamics
• How to identify current and/or potential areas of tension on your team
• How to communicate and address problems early on your team
