In this thoughtful talk, team builder Matt Trombley reflects on “agonism“ — the tendency to take a rigid stance on issues — and shares why finding aspects of agreement can be the first step in resolving conflict. “When you can find even the smallest bit of common ground with somebody, it allows you to understand the beautiful wonder and complexity and majesty of the other person,“ he says.
