Conflict Communication: A New Paradigm in Conscious Communication
Description
Conflict happens everywhere: at work, with friends and family, among
strangers, and certainly in violence. Why did your boss ignore a suggestion
that could save millions of dollars? Why do you have the same argument again
and again with your spouse? When someone insults you, why do you get angry?
Why do bad guys beat up the weak?You have three brains. Lizard brain
(survival)Monkey brain (emotion / social status)Human brain (reason)Each
“brain” has a different priority and evolved to deal with different kinds of
conflict. They work using different scripts and have a very clear seniority
system.Conflict Communication(ConCom) presents a functional taxonomy to see,
understand, and manipulate the roots of life’s conflicts. You will have the
background, the principles, and a collection of tricks to manage and ideally
avoid dangerous conflicts.No going back. After reading this book, you can
never go back. Even if you reject everything in the program, even if you
refuse to admit how often your monkey brain has controlled your life,
escalations toward conflict will never again be invisible to you.As the
fortune cookie says, “Your life is about to change.” Read more Read less
