Conflict Transformation: Learning to Love (or at Least Deal With) Conflict

From workplace tensions to policy debates, 2025 highlighted how conflict is an unavoidable part of public service. Rather than viewing conflict as a barrier, agencies are beginning to recognize it as a catalyst for innovation, resilience, and stronger teamwork.

Join us online Tuesday, Dec. 16 at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT for a dynamic conversation with government and industry thought leaders. We’ll explore practical strategies for reframing conflict, building healthier dialogue, and turning friction into forward momentum in the public sector.

Specifically, you’ll learn:
