04: How Curiosity Can Cure Conflict
12/01/22 • 13 min
Have you ever been in a conversation where someone said something that you don’t like and you just want to respond right away without thinking and listening more?
When we are in conflict with someone who isn't aligned with what we believe in, it creates tension and it becomes ‘us against them’.
This is more common in the workplace where there are a lot of different personalities and points of view. But how do we deal with this situation in a better way?
So in this episode, I would like to share with you the role that curiosity plays in dealing with conflict, the questions I ask when I’m in a tense conversation, and tips to help you practice compassionate communication.
