Drawing from her experience on the aikido mat and as a coach in organizations she has laid out the coaching process in clear, concise and accessible steps that will help anyone move from conflict towards resolution. I appreciate that her intention is to go beyond organizational coaching, she is also emphasizing, ... teaching skills that will support the parties ever after in all areas of life. A great contribution. --<b>Wendy Palmer</b>, author of <i>Leadership Embodiment</i>--Wendy Palmer<br><br>When two people don't get along, you can't just put them into a room and hope for the best, or assign them to a project and insist they work together. All relationships have some conflict, and some relationships are subject to deep conflicts. Addressing destructive behavior related to conflict is important. And addressing conflict when it happens, in a way that builds connection, collegiality, and allows individuals to share vulnerabilities takes time and nurturing. Judy Ringer has a way of working with individuals in conflict so that the relationship (assuming all parties want this) becomes healthy. That said, we need conflict! But we don't need destructive behavior that sometimes accompanies conflict. Anyone in business can tell you that individuals with healthy relationships, even in the midst of conflict, create a highly productive and psychologically safe environment at work, when they know how to work through the conflict appropriately. Judy's work provides solid recommendations, practical advice, and methods to address conflict--the book provides great insights to help rid organizations of behavior and approaches that can harm or destroy relationships. --<b>Connie Roy-Czyzowski</b>, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, CCP, Vice President Human Resources, Northeast Delta Dental--Connie Roy-Czyzowski<br><br>Workplaces are designed for conflict. They bring together competing interests of customers, designers, marketers, engineers, manufacturers and budgets. This book provides practical and easily implemented ways to allow these conflicts to be productive and relationship building. I highly recommend the book and hope that its insights leak into the larger arena of our civic and political dialogue. In the end, our way of life may depend on our capacity to trust and cooperate with strangers. The ideas in this book take us in that direction. --<b>Peter Block</b>, author of <i>Flawless Consulting, Stewardship, and Community</i>--Peter Block<br><br>"An essential addition to the conflict resolution toolkit." --<b>Marshall Goldsmith, </b>#1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Triggers</i><b></b>--Marshall Goldsmith<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Judy Ringer</b> is the founder of Power & Presence Training, and the author of <i>Unlikely Teachers</i>.
