Episode #7: Seek healthy conflict and collaborative friction, not combat at work. With guest Liggy Webb.

Send a textWork isn't always going to be sunshine and rainbows, but it doesn't have to be doom and gloom either. In our first one to one conversation on this podcast, this week the discussion with Liggy Webb moves around on how assumptions and unspoken communication can cause unwanted friction, plus explores the idea of working with people that challenge us. Thinking about how we can use empathy to create a healthy conflict rather than an unwanted combat.  In this episode we mention the book Nancy Kline's  "The Promise That Changes Everything: I won’t interrupt you". If you're intrigued you can find it at your favourite book shop, but for those keen to follow a single click, find a copy here at Waterstones (other bookshops are available, but the podcast is open to sponsorship!)
