In Part 1, we got real about why conflict happens — and how avoiding it only makes things worse. Now, we’re putting those lessons into action.

From managing up to leading your team through tough conversations, you’ll practice what it takes to stay calm, clear, and constructive when conflict hits — turning tough moments into opportunities for trust, confidence, and growth.
