How healthy conflict reduces burnout and strengthens team performance.
If you’ve ever spent 30 minutes drafting a two-line email just to avoid a confrontation, you are paying a "conflict tax" on your mental energy. Join Chartered Coaching Psychologist Jacqueline Weeks to explore why avoiding "cross words" can actually lead to burnout and "toxic silence" within teams. You will discover why our brains instinctively view disagreements as threats and, more importantly, how to shift that perception to see conflict as a critical tool for innovation.
