Embracing Team Conflict: A Catalyst for Growth and Innovation with Mark Wavle Episode 1

Ready for a deep dive into the intricate dynamics of team conflict? Let's dissect it together. I'm your host, Greg Miller, and joining me is Mark Wavle, the brains behind Unstuck Agile. We've put our heads together to bring you a fresh perspective on conflict in team settings. We're not shying away from the tension, we're embracing it, unpacking why it's absolutely crucial for creative and innovative projects.
Conflict isn't just a thorn in your side, it can be a catalyst for growth and learning. We'll walk you through just how avoiding conflict can stifle progress and breed mistrust. Learn from a company that welcomed open conflict, and the unexpected outcomes that ensued. Hear about Mark's personal experiences at Unstuck Agile, where he's taken on the intricate dance of initiating conflict with higher management. Understand the science behind our reactions to conflict and the tools you can harness to navigate through it. We challenge you to discard old notions of conflict and adopt a growth mindset, fostering a culture of learning in your teams.
BTW: This is Mark's second round on the show that's how awesome we think he is!
