Teams are ineffective when they can’t navigate conflicting points of view.
Gain the ability to work effectively with people who have different opinions and perspectives than your own.
Learn the difference between a problem to solve and a tension to manage, and the skills required to communicate conflicting points of view.
Learn a thoughtful, deliberate decision-making approach when dealing with complex issues.
Should we give people and departments the freedom to work independently, or should we all be working move collaboratively?
Should we communicate in a clear and candid way, or should we communicate in a diplomatic and tactful way?
Should we embrace change and innovation, or should we stay the course and stick with what works?
But this “either/or” thinking is a dangerous trap! To be more effective— both at work and at home — we need to realize that many of life's challenges are tensions to be managed.
The Power of Healthy Tension provides a simple framework that allows teams to tap into the power of “both/and” thinking. By doing this, we gain a massive competitive advantage, and move from surviving to thriving.
