Do you ever avoid conflict? The truth is, there is a price to pay! This week’s guest is Matthew McDonald who is a conflict expert...more specifically a guy that knows how to keep the peace!
Prior to founding Peacekeeper Works LLC, Matthew practiced law for 25+ years handling litigation of all kinds including employment, insurance, and business-related matters.
As we all know...the costs of conflict are real–attorneys fees, litigation expenses, employee turnover, and broken relationships. Unresolved conflict is corrosive. It consumes time, energy, and resources better spent elsewhere. Yet conflict is universal….and the good news is Matthew has a dynamic perspective on all of it!
He’s a father of 4 boys with one in heaven and has been married to his wife Alicia for 34 yrs
Listen in while I deconstruct the nuances of conflict and tease out some strategies we can apply to our businesses.
