When faced with conflict, most people try to calmly talk through differences…and fail. But what if instead of resolving conflicts, you could simply free yourself from conflict instead?

Drawing on research and themes from her book, Optimal Outcomes: Free Yourself from Conflict at Work, at Home, and in Life (HarperBusiness), Dr. Jennifer Goldman-Wetzler inspires leaders and their teams to free themselves from the common patterns that hold teams back, and to achieve optimal outcomes instead. By learning how to increase clarity and complexity, turn challenging emotions from a liability into an asset, and acknowledge both ideal values (proudly held) and shadow values (hard to admit, even to ourselves), individuals and teams leave empowered to address a host of situations they face every day with newfound freedom and ease.

Using engaging examples that all leaders can relate to, Goldman-Wetzler equips audiences with the mindsets and practices they need to achieve optimal outcomes—and to lead the way for others to do the same.

The three moves that all leaders can make today to maximize their organization’s health and growth.

In this inspiring talk, Dr. Jennifer Goldman-Wetzler draws on over a half-century of research on organizational change to deliver three key secrets that all great leaders must know if they are to create lasting, innovative organizational performance. Designed specifically for executives who lead highly complex organizations, audiences will walk away with new ideas and practical tools for how to grow their organizations while maintaining organizational health and vitality at all levels.
