A paradigm-shattering exploration of how we fight and how we build healthy conflict, from the author of The Art of Gathering.
About this Event

Co-presented with Manny's

As she did in the now-classic The Art of Gathering, Priya Parker draws on her far-reaching experience as a conflict facilitator, her own detailed research, and real-world examples to lay out the ways that people can identify disputes, determine how to address them, and what to do if they are insurmountable. Whether people disagree in the boardroom or the locker room, on a playground or in church, online or in person, conflict is a part of life, and understanding healthy conflict and how to harness its power is more important than ever. The Art of Fighting is a vital primer to help all of us understand how to do that.
