Description
In the modern workplace, conflict has become a dirty word. After all, conflict is antithetical to teamwork, employee engagement, and a positive company culture. Or is it?
The truth is that our teams and organisations require conflict to get things done. But we avoid conflict and build up conflict debt by deferring and dodging the difficult decisions. Our organisations are paying the price - becoming less productive, less innovative, and less competitive. Individuals are paying, too - suffering from overwhelming workloads, endless drama, and sleepless nights.
In The Good Fight, Liane Davey shows you how to create the productive conflict your organisation needs to get along and get stuff done. Drawing on her twenty-year career as an advisor to the C-Suite, Davey shares real-world examples and practical tools to handle even the most contentious conflicts as allies. The Good Fight is an essential field guide for leaders at all levels.
