An indispensable tool kit for engaging and  harnessing healthy conflict to drive success and happiness, and  eliminate the pain and stress of toxic conflict.

Whether we’re in the boardroom, break-room, courtroom, high school cafeteria, holiday dinner table, or anywhere else where humans interact, the same patterns of conflict play out repeatedly. While many fear conflict, the reality is that embracing conflict in a healthy way is the single greatest factor in driving success and avoiding failure. Just as toxins in our bodies make us unhealthy, slow us down, and cause us pain, the same holds true for toxins in our organizations and minds. They feed destructive conflict, which consumes an organization’s energy and taxes its ability to compete, grow, and prosper. Team engagements become pained, client relationships are strained, and individual careers suffer. The same unhealthy dynamics play out in our personal lives as well.

The key to making conflict work for our benefit lies in removing toxins from our interactions, and Don’t Get Mad at Penguins offers simple yet powerfully effective tools to do just that.
