Collaborative Conflict Culture, with Dr. Jessica Katz Jameson
Episode 33
Thursday, 20 November, 2025
Have you ever wondered how to communicate well to manage conflict? We often think of conflict as inherently bad, but instead, if we think of it as normal and natural, could there be such a thing as collaborative conflict management? It turns out that although we often shy away from conflict, it can actually be useful when we know how to handle it well. In particular, when we approach interactions with a mindset of Listening, Engaging, Acknowledging, Rapport building and Nurturing—that is, using the LEARN framework—we not only build trusting relationships, we also contribute to a workplace culture of collaboration that makes it easier to have difficult conversations when conflicts arise. Listen to this episode for a fascinating and thought-provoking conversation with Dr. Jameson about her research over the past thirty years on workplace conflict, and how you can more effectively manage yourself and others in these situations.
