Podcasts about managing conflict

Join Tom Bilyeu and his co-host Drew as they tackle hot-button issues—from national protests and government response to the growing concerns of political polarization and economic instability. As the headlines scream about cities on fire and rumors of civil war swirl, Tom and Drew challenge each other's perspectives, debating how much of our current climate is real versus media-fueled overdramatization. They'll share their unique “inside the car vs. drone's-eye view” approach to understanding how local experiences and national trends collide. In this episode, they break down the waves of protest in LA, the government's response, and the political strategies at play—especially in the context of Trump's and Newsom's public standoff. Plus, they don't shy away from the hard questions: Are we witnessing the early signs of a larger societal unraveling? How do personal freedoms, law and order, and economic distress fit into the bigger picture? And what can history—and thinkers like Ray Dalio—teach us about what might come next?

In this solocast I talk about the different types of problems or issues that come up in our relationships: perpetual (or unresolvable) vs. solvable ones. The key to relationship success is not eliminating perpetual problems (which is impossible), but rather learning to navigate them with respect and humor while effectively resolving the ones that can be solved. Healthy couples recognize which category their conflicts fall into and approach them accordingly.   Related Content: Other Podcast Episodes The Goal of Healthy Conflict Managing Conflicts in Partnerships Maintaining Connection Through Conflict HeartShare: Attitudes of Connection HeartShare: How Practicing Humility Helps Your Relationships     Let's Talk About It!   Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Relationships!

BONUS: How To Build Trust and Manage Conflict, With Maria Arpa In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into the art of building trust and managing conflict in the workplace with Maria Arpa, an expert mediator and creator of the Dialogue Roadmap. Maria shares powerful insights on transforming workplace dynamics through compassionate communication and authentic dialogue. Understanding Power Dynamics in the Workplace "What we don't talk about openly, most people end up acting out." Power imbalances exist in every workplace and cannot be ignored. Maria emphasizes the importance of exposing and addressing these power dynamics openly, particularly the unspoken contracts that govern our interactions. These implicit agreements often drive behavior and can lead to conflict when left unaddressed. The Dialogue Roadmap: Moving Beyond Debate "We give children prizes for debating societies. We don't give children prizes for collaborative behavior." The Dialogue Roadmap offers a structured approach to authentic conversation that moves away from the traditional debate model. Maria explains how our societal conditioning toward debate and competition can hinder genuine communication and collaboration. Creating Safe Spaces for Difficult Conversations "You can't have these conversations while you're trying to do the work and meet a deadline." One key aspect of effective conflict resolution is creating dedicated spaces for challenging conversations. Maria emphasizes that these discussions cannot happen effectively while trying to meet deadlines or during regular work activities. The Power of Empathic Connection "Empathy drives change. It drives change from the inside out." Building trust starts with establishing empathic connections. Maria shares how this approach drives change from the inside out, rather than trying to force external changes. Managing Conflict as a Resource "Conflict, when approached compassionately, is our biggest free resource that opens the door to creativity." Rather than viewing conflict as a problem to be solved, Maria suggests seeing it as a valuable resource for positive change. When approached compassionately, conflict can open doors to creativity and innovation. Language and Trust-Building "Words can be windows or walls... language is the software in our brains that we use to tell us what to do." The words we choose can either build bridges or create barriers. Maria introduces the concept of "enforcement mentality" and its impact on workplace relationships. In this segment, we refer to the episode with Michelle Pauk on the importance of language in our work. Practical Tools for Leaders Maria shares several practical approaches for leaders to build trust and manage conflict: Slow down conversations using techniques like the metronome Use phrases like "If I understand you, what you really want me to hear is..." Create opportunities to restart conversations with "This isn't the conversation I meant to have. Can I start again, please?" Maintaining Accountability Without Enforcement "You can say 'What conversation should I be having with you?' - how the person answers tells you everything you need to know." Creating accountability without falling into an enforcement mentality requires clear communication about expectations and consequences. Maria emphasizes the importance of making contracts explicit and inviting people to take ownership of their responsibilities. About Maria Arpa Maria Arpa is an expert mediator, counselor, and advocate for meaningful workplace change, and the creator of the Dialogue Roadmap - a communications tool that moves away from accusative/blaming ways of communicating to a much more compassionate and collaborative way of working. In her book "Mindfulness at Work", Maria offers powerful strategies to transform stressful, conflict-ridden workplaces into environments of harmony and collaboration.

Today we launch a three part series with John Greenwood, a seasoned executive with over 30 years of experience at Huntington National Bank, where he served as Executive Vice President. During his tenure, Jon managed a vast network of over 1,000 branches and 6,500 staff members across 11 states. This interview was filled with GOLD LEADERSHIP LESSONS which required me to divide this one interview into three parts. I've never done this before but it is absolutely needed so nothing is missed.  This three-part series delves into the intricacies of leadership and organizational management. Part 1 – Jon shares his extensive experience and wisdom, highlighting the importance of the Five Driver Model for Success, which includes People, Culture, Strategy, Structure, and Process1. Part 2 –  Managing Conflict & Performance Improvement Our conversation explores handling conflict and improving performance within leadership and teams. We also discuss strategies for managing disagreements, balancing empathy with assertiveness, and ensuring team members are in the right roles. Part 3 – Set The Bar By Knowing Your Numbers As a leader, knowing your numbers is crucial because it demonstrates a deep understanding of your business. Jon Greenwood shares an experience where his CEO, Steve Steinour, would ask detailed questions to ensure that Jonn truly knew his business. This level of scrutiny helped Jon learn his numbers quickly and thoroughly. It also allowed him to make informed decisions and effectively manage his responsibilities. Jon gives us a taste of his current involvement in building a leadership program at Cedarville University which we will have him on at a later date to really go deep into this exciting new leadership program. Here is Part 1 with Jon Greenwood.

Boarding horses can be a solution for owners who do not have enough space or time for full-time care. However, owners often struggle with losing control over aspects like feeding, turnout, and herd dynamics.Finding a balance between the horse's needs and how the boarding facility gets run can be difficult, but with the right approach, owners can set things up to work for themselves, the facility, and their horses. Choosing the Best Available OptionIn areas where boarding facilities are limited, owners may have to go with the best available option rather than finding an ideal one. In those situations, owners should prioritize the key needs of their horse and aim for a setup that allows them to feel confident the horse is well cared for when they are not there.Forage, Freedom, and FriendshipA horse's welfare depends on access to forage, freedom of movement, and social interaction. A boarding facility that does not provide frequent forage feedings can contribute to stress, ulcers, and digestive issues. Stall Time and IsolationExtended stall confinement can lead to stress and behavioral issues, as horses need to move, graze, and socialize. When those needs go unmet, frustration builds. Solutions like increased turnout and exercise can help alleviate that stress and prevent any dangerous situations from arising.Finding Harmony for You and Your HorseCreating a balanced environment for horses is crucial, as they are sensitive to the energies around them. So, owners must be patient and adopt a positive mindset when looking for the right boarding facility. The Emotional Impact of Boarding ConflictsTension often arises between horse owners and boarding facility management. Owners want the best for their horses and may feel frustrated if their needs are not fully met, and boarding facilities have to consider their costs and the availability of their staff while treating all boarders fairly. Even though both perspectives are valid, unresolved frustration may lead to ongoing conflict.How Stress Affects HorsesHorses are highly attuned to human emotions, and if their owner carries stress, tension, or frustration, they feel it too. Subtle physical signs like tight shoulders, restricted movement, or tension in their owners can influence how a horse perceives its surroundings, and a stressful environment can negatively impact its ability to heal and thrive.Managing Conflict and CommunicationClear communication is the key to reducing frustration. Owners should express their horse's needs openly while also understanding the limitations of the facility. Likewise, boarding facilities should be upfront about what they can and cannot provide. Honest communication can prevent misunderstandings and foster a far more cooperative atmosphere.Creating a Low-Stress Environment for HorsesIn less-than-ideal boarding situations, small changes can improve a horse's well-being. Options like increased turnout, alternative hay choices, or adjusted pen arrangements can make a significant difference. The goal is to create a minimally stressful environment that allows the horse to feel safe and supported.Taking Responsibility and Choosing Battles WiselyOwners who board their horses must take responsibility for the needs of the horse while recognizing that perfection is not always possible. Instead of getting stuck in frustration, they should focus on making the most impactful changes they can. Whether it is improving socialization opportunities, reducing stall time, or ensuring better food access, those small adjustments can go a long way in enhancing the quality of life of a horse.The Bigger Picture: Patience and AdaptationNo...

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)In this episode we explore the "Big Five" - those core personality traits that tend to be consistent over time and circumstance. PLUS, we share a secret mantra that just may help you and your clients experience less stress when dealing with the difficult people in their lives.We consistently hear clients express disappointment, frustration, and even rage when their spouse, ex or co-parent doesn't act or behave in the way they think they should. And we get it. It's incredibly distressing to have to be on the receiving end of someone else's less than stellar behavior. But we have to ask…is this really surprising? While people's personality traits may get exaggerated during the divorce process, they typically aren't radically different than the way that spouse behaved during the marriage. And clients continue to suffer when they continue to expect their partner or co-parent to radically transform during divorce.Understanding these 5 personality traits can help anyone going through divorce or co-parenting conflict stay grounded in the reality of who their partner is. And that gives them the freedom and agency to decide how to respond.

Whether leading people through a 15-minute meeting or a years-long pandemic, communication requires compassion. For Dr. Anthony Fauci, that means being clear about who we're speaking to and concise in what we say.As one of the world's leading experts in infectious diseases and public health, Fauci has been America's most trusted voice during the COVID-19 pandemic and other health crises. Whether addressing groups of fellow scientists and specialists or everyday people, his communication approach is the same. "Know your audience," he says. "Decide what your message is and make it crisp [and] clear."In addition to being clear about the known facts, Fauci advocates for equal transparency about the unknowns. "Be totally transparent into what you know and what you don't know," he says. "Transparency, honesty and a little bit of humility — let the audience know that you don't know everything."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Fauci joins Matt Abrahams to discuss how leaders can communicate more effectively by staying focused on what matters most. From managing uncertainty to handling contentious interactions, they explore how clarity and transparency build trust and drive results.Thank you to our Sponsor Superhuman for offering the TFTS community one month free.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Anthony Fauci Dr. Fauci's Book: Expect the Unexpected Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:34) - Communication in Crisis (03:40) - Strategies for Building Trust (05:00) - Adapting Messages for Different Audiences (07:05) - Techniques for Effective Communication (08:32) - Managing High-Stakes Communication (10:20) - Addressing Misinformation (11:33) - Impromptu Speaking Skills (14:45) - Managing Conflict in Communication (15:51) - The Final Three Questions (19:42) - Conclusion ********Become a Faster Smarter Supporter by joining TFTS Premium.Take advantage of our Sponsor offer from Superhuman

Turn any meeting or get-together into a chance for deep connection and collaboration.Whether you're holding a team meeting or hosting a family get-together, the success of any gathering, says Priya Parker, isn't about the perfect agenda or venue, but about the intentionality behind how you bring people together.“90% of the success of any gathering happens before anyone enters the room,” says Parker. As the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, and a strategic advisor who has helped organizations worldwide reimagine their gatherings, Parker believes that thoughtful preparation can turn any meeting, whether professional or personal, into a meaningful and memorable experience for all involved. “Intentionality is the first step,” she says, “to pause and ask: why are we doing this? What is the purpose? What is the need in this community or in this classroom or in this team?”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Parker joins Matt Abrahams to explore the art of meaningful gatherings, sharing practical strategies for everything from crafting invitations that prime engagement to designing powerful closings that leave a lasting impact. By being more thoughtful in bringing people together, we can transform ordinary meetings into extraordinary opportunities for connection and collaboration.Episode Reference Links:Priya Parker Priya's Book: The Art of Gathering Ep.124 Making Meetings Meaningful, Pt. 1: How to Structure and Organize More Effective Gatherings Ep.125 Making Meetings Meaningful, Pt. 2: Key Ingredients for Effective Meetings Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:24) - Intentionality in Everyday Conversations (03:10) - Questioning the Purpose of Gatherings (05:18) - The Power of Great Questions (08:21) - Managing Heat in Conversations (10:30) - Encouraging Participation Beforehand (13:10) - Creating Impactful Endings (15:36) - The Final Three Questions (18:30) - Conclusion ********Become a Faster Smarter Supporter by joining TFTS Premium.

Want to really know someone?Get into a fight with them. Especially one that hits all their hot buttons. You'll soon see the worst of them. Conflict does funny things to people.It is one of the few times we drop our carefully crafted social masks. It's one of the reasons couples think their partner has changed. Because they just didn't get to see this side when everything was smooth sailing.Work is the other place where conflict can often happen.It happens because we care. We see our future as being tied up with the future path we choose. And so we get threatened.How we deal with conflict is the key determinant of how effective we will be.All too often, we avoid conflict. Or we become over-aggressive. In today's episode Clark Ray, Tony Walmsley and I talked about conflict at work.

Negotiation... it's a skill we all need, but let's be real, most of us aren't born with it. That's why today, we've brought back our go-to expert, Nicole Davidson, to dive into the fine art of negotiation, conflict resolution, and managing the tricky balance of egos and emotions. In this ep, Nicole and I get down to the juicy stuff: the psychology behind negotiation, why your emotions (and theirs) can make or break a deal, and how knowing when to walk away might be your best move. My interest was piqued with her newest service - think of her as Judge Judy for small business disputes - giving a low-cost solution to avoid the courtroom while still getting things done. We even delve into the rise of AI in negotiations (ummmm yep, you might be negotiating with a bot and not even know it!). Whether you're dealing with a business partner, negotiating a deal, or just trying to navigate daily conversations, Nicole's insights will leave you thinking differently about the power of curiosity, listening, and asking the right questions.    TESTART FAMILY LAWYERS Website: testartfamilylawyers.com.au NICOLE DAVIDSON Website: nicoledavidsonnegotiation.com.au TIFFANEE COOK Linktree: linktr.ee/rollwiththepunches/ Website: tiffcook.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tiffaneecook/ Facebook: facebook.com/rollwiththepunchespodcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/rollwiththepunches_podcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/tiffaneeandco    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BONUS: Leading Without Blame, Building Resilient Teams with Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen In this BONUS episode, leadership experts Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen explore their latest book, Lead Without Blame, talking about how leaders can create high-performing teams without resorting to blaming. This conversation tackles the key themes from their book, and offers insights on how leaders can foster resilient, learning-focused teams. Understanding "Lead Without Blame" "Leadership isn't about finger-pointing; it's about creating an environment where learning and growth can flourish." Tricia and Diana kick off the conversation by breaking down what it means to lead without blame. They explore the impact of blame in the workplace, particularly how it stifles innovation, and erodes psychological safety. The authors stress the importance of making space for learning and acknowledge that many leaders, even unintentionally, perpetuate a culture of blame. "To lead without blame, focus on building a culture where learning is prioritized over finger-pointing." The Inspiration Behind the Book "Blame has always been a leadership issue, and this book was a way to address it head-on." Tricia and Diana share personal anecdotes that inspired the book. Tricia describes writing the book as therapeutic, reflecting on her past experiences as an executive who lacked the skills to prevent a blame culture. Diana highlights how pervasive blame is in toxic work environments and the urgent need for a shift in leadership approaches to create healthier, more supportive workplaces. "Our goal is to equip leaders with the tools they need to create environments where everyone can thrive without the fear of blame." From Knowledge Work to Learning Work "Learning is the evolution of knowledge work, and it's the foundation of resilient teams." The authors discuss the shift from traditional knowledge work to what they call "learning work." They explain that building resilient teams requires fostering an environment where continuous learning is encouraged and natural. Leaders must embrace the idea that learning is an ongoing process, crucial for adapting to changes like remote work and other modern challenges. "To build resilient teams, leaders must prioritize creating a learning environment where everyone is prepared to adapt and grow." The 4Cs of Learning Leaders "Courage, Compassion, Confidence, and Complexity—these are the pillars of effective leadership in today's world." Tricia and Diana introduce the "4Cs" of Learning Leaders—Courage, Compassion, Confidence, and Complexity. They emphasize that leadership is not just about hierarchical authority but about modeling these qualities at all levels within a team. Leaders must navigate uncertainty and complexity with confidence, showing their teams how to do the same. "True leadership is about embodying the 4Cs—showing courage, compassion, confidence, and understanding complexity in every situation." Leadership Through Learning "Leaders must exemplify the learning process, guiding their teams through growth and change." The authors explore the concept of "Leadership through Learning," where leaders actively engage in and model the learning process. They discuss essential motivators like shared purpose, autonomy, and co-intelligence, which are crucial for fostering a collaborative and innovative team environment. "Leadership through learning means being intentional about creating a space where your team can grow together." The Five Rules for Accelerated Learning In their book, Tricia and Diana outline "Five Rules for Accelerated Learning" that are essential for leaders looking to cultivate high-performing teams. These rules guide leaders in creating environments where learning is continuous, rapid, and deeply integrated into the team's daily work. "Accelerated learning happens when leaders set the right conditions and provide clear, actionable guidance." Managing Conflict with the Escalating Conflict Model "Healthy conflict is a sign of engagement, but it's crucial to recognize when it starts to become destructive." The authors discuss the "Escalating Conflict Model", which helps leaders identify and manage conflict stages within their teams. The model emphasizes recognizing when conflicts move from healthy disagreements to destructive behaviors and provides strategies for keeping conflicts constructive and focused on team goals. "Understanding the stages of conflict helps leaders intervene early and keep team dynamics positive." Maximizing Learning and Adaptation through Retrospectives "Retrospectives are not just about looking back—they're about learning and adapting for the future." Tricia and Diana highlight the importance of retrospectives in team development, emphasizing that these sessions are critical for continuous learning and adaptation. They offer practical advice on how leaders can conduct effective retrospectives that focus on purpose-relevant topics and foster a culture of open, constructive dialogue. "Use retrospectives as a tool to reinforce your team's shared goals and drive continuous improvement." Learn More About the Book The book is Lead Without Blame by Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen.
