#44 - How To Make Conflict Productive And Beneficial For Your Team - a podcast by Tanveer Naseer

Conflict is something most of us tend to avoid because we view it as being negative and counter-productive. But what if we're seeing this wrong? Could conflict actually be productive and beneficial for our team? That's the focus of my conversation with organizational psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Liane Davey in this episode of my leadership podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe”.

Up, Get Along, and Get Stuff Done.” She is also a regularcontributor to the Harvard Business Review and an organizational
psychology expert for Quartz magazine. As the co-founder of 3COze,she advises on business strategy and executive team effectiveness and
has worked with executives at companies such as Amazon, Walmart,Aviva, TD Bank, 3M, and SONY PlayStation.



In this episode, we'll be talking about her book, “The Good Fight: Use Productive Conflict to Get Your Team and Organization Back on Track”.



Over the course of thisepisode, Liane and I discuss:



What is “conflictdebt” and why we should be doing our best to avoid amassing this
kind of debt.The three
behaviours we all do that can fuel conflicts instead of addressingthe underlying roots.
Why it's important
to understand the difference between conflict aversion and conflictavoidance.
