within conflict lies opportunity
Although conflict often feels negative, it can indicate a team's diversity of thought (crucial for innovation) and passion for their work. Managed with emotional intelligence, conflict can foster increased respect, empathy, trust, and spur innovation.
Conflict itself can be a beneficial tool that leads to uncovering learnings, new perspectives, and deepening in self-awareness. If conflict is mis-managed it can lead to silos, lack of trust, and feelings of not belonging, yet if conflict is managed with emotional intelligence, it has the potential to lead to deeper respect, empathy, greater trust, and innovation.
