Publisher's summary

Most organizations are terrified of conflict, seeing it as a sign of trouble. But clinical psychologist and transformative communication expert Dr. Nate Regier says conflict is really just a kind of energy that can be used for good or ill. With the concepts and tools he shares in this book, you can turn conflict into a partner for positive change.

Handled incorrectly, conflict becomes drama - people struggle against themselves or each other to feel justified about their negative behavior. It's immensely costly to companies, teams, and relationships at all levels. Regier illustrates the interpersonal dynamics that perpetuate drama through a concept called the Drama Triangle and offers an alternative: compassionate accountability.

Compassionate accountability is the engine that turns conflict into a creative force. It's a process of holding people accountable while preserving their dignity. It balances caring, concern, empathy, and transparency with boundaries, goals, aspirations, and standards. Regier shows how the destructive dynamics of the Drama Triangle can be transformed using its constructive counterpart: the Compassion Cycle. Provocative and illuminating, this book helps us replace the unrealistic, sometimes punishing, even crushing demands we exact on both our colleagues and our loved ones with openness, resourcefulness, and persistence.

Great information delivered in an easily digestible way.

I will be able to take these methods and apply them to my work as a leader within my company. This was a suggested book by my manager and it is very helpful in showing the psychology of conflict. not only will I be able to use these methods at work but I will do my best to apply them in my home with my wife and kids.

Fantastic read and guide for transforming conflict

Compassionate Accountability is a remarkable gift to the world. Thank you Nate Regier and The Next Element team for your careful study of conflict and compassionate accountability to put all these concepts and examples together in a clear, actionable and empowering model and practice. As a mother, wife, coach, and citizen of the world - I am inspired to share this book and its practices to help our world transform conflict into compassionate accountability to better manage our energy crisis and co-create a better world. Highly recommend this book to everyone.
