The Art of Fighting: Building Better, Stronger Relationships
Join us for a perspective-shifting conversation with acclaimed facilitator Priya Parker to discuss her groundbreaking new book, The Art of Fighting: The Transformative Power of Conflict.
In The Art of Fighting, Priya Parker explains that we can’t form and grow effective relationships without a fight. She rejects the idea that conflict is abnormal or that good groups don’t fight. All groups change and evolve; it’s because people disagree that good groups flourish. Register for the online event, Read more books about conflict management with your library card, Watch past author talks, If you can't attend live, register anyway and you'll receive a recording of the talk!
