X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Join us for a paradigm-shifting\, essentia
 l event as we sit down with world-renowned master facilitator Priya Parker
  to discuss her groundbreaking new book\,&nbsp\;The Art of Fighting: The T
 ransformative Power of Conflict.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In&nbsp\;The Art of Fighti
 ng\, Priya Parker explains that we can&rsquo\;t form and grow effective re
 lationships without a fight. She rejects the idea that conflict is abnorma
 l or that good groups don&rsquo\;t fight. All groups change and evolve\; i
 ndeed\, it&rsquo\;s because people disagree that good groups flourish.</p>
 \n<p>As she did in the now-classic&nbsp\;The Art of Gathering\, Parker dra
 ws on her far-reaching experience as a conflict facilitator\, her own deta
 iled research\, and real-world examples to lay out the ways that people ca
 n identify disputes\, determine how to address them\, and what to do if th
 ey are insurmountable. Whether people disagree in the boardroom or the loc
 ker room\, on a playground or in church\, online or in person\, conflict i
 s a part of life\, and understanding healthy conflict and how to harness i
 ts power is more important than ever.&nbsp\;The Art of Fighting&nbsp\;is a
  vital primer to help all of us understand how to do that.</p>\n<p>Registe
 r today to learn how to turn everyday arguments into profound moments of c
 onnection and trust!</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>About the Author:&nbsp\;</p>\
