Dr. Beth Fisher-Yoshida on Why Power, Negotiation, and Conflict Resolution Matter

Why are the words conflict and negotiation intimidating? How can we take the fear out of these subjects and improve our comfortability with them? Why is proficiency in negotiation key to a healthy work environment and a great career?

Dr. Beth Fisher-Yoshida is Co-Executive Director of the Advanced Consortium on Cooperation, Conflict and Complexity (AC4) and Director of the Youth, Peace and Security (YPS) program, both housed in the Earth Institute at Columbia University.

In this episode, we spoke with her about:

• What skills are vital in an inclusive work space 
• Why conflict resolution and negotiation aren’t as scary as they seem
• How caring is at the heart of improving our proficiency in conflict resolution and negotiation
