Conflict Resilience: Negotiating Disagreement Without Giving Up or Giving In - Bob Bordone

Could we just skip Thanksgiving dinner when we don't want to talk to our relatives about politics? Do we really need to have that hard conversation with our boss or a coworker? How do we talk to grandpa when the time comes to take away his car keys? These are some of the examples mentioned in this special episode of Deacons Pod in which the Paulist Deacon Affiliates interview Bob Bordone, co-author of the new book "Conflict Resilience: Negotiating Disagreement Without Giving Up or Giving In." A longtime professor of law, Bob is founder of the Harvard Negotiation and Mediation Clinical Program and founder of the Cambridge Negotiation Institute. He also is a member of the Paulist Center in Boston and a member of the advisory board for the Paulist Initiative on Polarization. ABOUT THE SHOW: Deacons Pod is a podcast for everyone. But, it’s especially created to inspire and give hope to people on the “threshold of faith”: Those who are thinking about going to Church and those who are thinking about leaving Church. Deacons Pod is hosted by the Paulist Deacon affiliates. The podcast is a production of the Paulist Fathers. More at deaconspod.com
