The Art of Fighting: The Transformative Power of Conflict
Priya Parker with Aaron Hurst at Town Hall Seattle
Across our modern landscapes, more and more people are voicing a want for community. Dynamic friend groups. High-performing colleagues and workplaces. Successful teams. And success means we connect meaningfully, reach our goals, and don’t fight…right? Conflict facilitator and advisor Priya Parker thinks there’s more to it than that.
In her newest book, The Art of Fighting: The Transformative Power of Conflict, Parker argues that many of us don’t understand the crucial element we need to forge long-lasting communities — healthy conflict. She rejects the idea that conflict is abnormal or that good groups don’t fight. All groups change and evolve, and hard conversations and disagreement are part of that growth.
Join US Chamber of Connection CEO, Aaron Hurst, at Town Hall Seattle for a guided conversation with Parker on September 18th at 7:30pm.
Tickets are $10 - 35 and can be purchased from the Town Hall Website.
Attend a FREE pre-event reception with the Chamber of Connection community, and then walk to Town Hall as a group!
