520 Conflict is a central theme of our lives. We see the
negative consequences of war and violence all around us.
Even in the workplace, disputes and arguments cause
problems and stifle productivity. But opposition can also
be positive. For instance, our muscles become stronger as
they encounter resistance. The bonds of our relationships
can become stronger as we strive to overcome our
differences. Likewise, says author Darby Checketts,
businesses and organizations can become stronger as a
result of conflict. Postive Conflict is a book that goes
beyond coping with or handling workplace conflict; its
premise is that conflict is often an indicator that
creative energy is about to be unleashed. There is
potentially positive power inside opposition, just as with
the fusion of atoms. When opposing ideas are openly
explored, a breakthrough in thinking can occur, which can
reveal more comprehensive solutions. And the coming
together of these once-opposing forces multiplies the
potential for success. If our view of conflict transcends
a win-lose mentality, we will see that the flipside of
opposition is the opportunity for discovery and
innovation. And in business today, we need leaders who can
reconcile the seeming exclusivity of competing ideas and
fuse them for new and better results. For example, it is
the combination of self-confidence and humility that
maximizes a leader's effectiveness. By reading Postive
Conflict, you will: " Recognize the creative energy inside
conflict to unleash the power of opposites." Discover why
the optimist's answer to everything is "yes"--That the
issue is not what is right or wrong, but how to synthesize
ideas to expand problem-solving options." Help your
stakeholders come together in a spirit of partnership to
move beyond special interests and personality clashes."
Understand that your own conflicting ideas and viewpoints
reveal new dimensions of who you are and the range of
opportunities that await you. Darby Checketts is the
president of Cornerstone Professional Development of Mesa,
Arizona, which he founded in 1985. He is known by his
