Taking Collaborative Action on Climate with Kartik Madiraju || Superhero Academy Podcast Ep. 16

Superhero Academy Podcast Kartik Madiraju - Insight Collaborative For full notes and key points, please visit LINKSOON Summary In this podcast, Marc Coppola interviews Kartik Madiraju, an expert in conflict resolution. He is working with Insight Collaborative, a conflict management, non-profit organization based in Boston. It was founded on the idea that the best outcome in any interaction is where people can create value for each other, while strengthening the relationship that matters to them the most. It allows people to pursue personal development and humanitarian contributions. It wants people to have the skills on conflict resolution without having to worry about the cost. They also talk about how climate change is a big issue in conflict resolution. Although climate change is a global problem, it would be difficult for every nation to agree on something altogether to come up with one single solution that all nations agree upon. As environmentalists, our goal should be making sustainability mainstream, making it cool and fun, for more people to support it. Our goal is to excite people, not to make them feel bad. If we focus on the benefits of the actions we want people to make, we can truly make a change and see the difference. Main Questions Asked • What is conflict resolution? How is it applied?
