Disagree better

The way you disagree has a powerful ripple effect on your life. Join thousands worldwide who disagree better with insights and ideas from my monthly newsletter:

Transform how you deal with conflict

How you handle conflict has an impact on the resilience of your vital relationships, the caliber of your decisions, the success of your career, and your peace of mind.

Fine-tune communication

Word choice, good questions, and good listening skills and habits contribute to effective communication. You disagree better when you align your verbal and nonverbal communication with intentions and attitudes that foster connection and build rapport.

Increase emotional agility

The best conflict resolution and communication skills aren’t very useful if you can’t access them when you need them most. You disagree better when emotional agility helps you maintain or regain your equilibrium during stressful interactions.

Examine mental models

How you think about a problem influences how you approach it. Mental models are the explanations and pictures you naturally construct in your head to make sense of the world. You disagree better when you understand how this “invisible architecture of the mind” influences your experience.

Value good process

Good problem-solving process is like a reliable GPS — it orients you to where you are, guides you around obstructions, and helps you reach your destination safely. You disagree better when you have a coherent way to navigate the conversation and organize information.

Safeguard the space between

The “space between” is the figurative space between us. Conflict and friction can damage the space between, but there are things you can do to buffer vital relationships from the harmful effects of conflict. You disagree better when you negotiate in ways that acknowledge and honor the importance of the space between.
