Radical engagement: Adam Kahane on working with generals and guerrillas to make change from the inside

Dela

How do you work with people you genuinely can't stand? Not someone who rubs you the wrong way in a meeting. Someone on the opposite side of your moral compass. Adam Kahane has spent 35 years finding that answer in some of the most intractable conflicts in modern history. His conclusion? You don't blow the system up. You find the cracks.

Topic Highlights:

– The simple tool for moving from blame to agency in any stuck situation

– What calling someone your "enemy" can actually cost you

– What apartheid learnings say about how systems change from the inside

– Why civility and self-regulation are the most strategic leadership skills you'll ever build

– The Leonard Cohen framework that might be Adam’s best leadership advice

Guest Bio:

Adam Kahane is the co-founder of Reos Partners, a conflict resolution facilitator who has worked in over 50 countries, and a member of the Order of Canada.
