Culture Playbook: Working Through Conflict 3 Scenario Based Toolkits

Culture Playbook: Working Through Conflict 3 Scenario Based Toolkits

Welcome to your step-by-step guide on working through conflict. We’ve spoken to hundreds of people leaders and founders over the years and identified some common kinds of conflict that you might come across. We’ve created a pragmatic and practical mini toolkit for each.

This Playbook is for you if any of the following (or similar) are true:

👉  You have a personal disagreement with the founder or another member of the leadership team about a flammable decision e.g. remote vs hybrid, compensation philosophy, benefits change, a potential hire, a potential fire – anything!

👉 You can see the leadership team as a whole failing to work through a conflict in a healthy way #avoidance #blame

👉 You can see two (or more) teams/functions not working well together.
