X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>In&nbsp\;<em>The Art of Fighting</em>\, Pr
 iya Parker explains that we can&rsquo\;t form and grow effective relations
 hips without a fight. She rejects the idea that conflict is abnormal or th
 at good groups don&rsquo\;t fight. All groups change and evolve\; indeed\,
  it&rsquo\;s because people disagree that good groups flourish.</p>\n<p>As
  she did in the now-classic&nbsp\;<em>The Art of Gathering</em>\, Parker d
 raws on her far-reaching experience as a conflict facilitator\, her own de
 tailed research\, and real-world examples to lay out the ways that people 
 can identify disputes\, determine how to address them\, and what to do if 
 they are insurmountable. Whether people disagree in the boardroom or the l
 ocker room\, on a playground or in church\, online or in person\, conflict
  is a part of life\, and understanding healthy conflict and how to harness
  its power is more important than ever.&nbsp\;<em>The Art of Fighting&nbsp
 \;</em>is a vital primer to help all of us understand how to do that.</p>\
 n<p>Priya Parker is an internationally recognized expert on creating purpo
 seful gatherings and reimagining how we come together in our communities a
 nd our workplaces. She is a conflict facilitator\, strategic advisor\, spe
 aker\, and author of the acclaimed book&nbsp\;<em>The Art of Gathering: Ho
 w We Meet and Why it Matters</em>&nbsp\;and the host of&nbsp\;<em>The Art 
 of Gathering Digital Course</em>. Whether addressing CEOs\, non-profit lea
 ders\, students or community organizers\, Parker captivates audiences with
  her unique blend of storytelling\, research-backed insights\, and practic
 al strategies.</p>\nhttps://neworleans.libnet.info/event/16938125
