Where can you turn when your attempts to resolve conflict fail?

Most approaches emphasize collaboration. You are supposed to sit down, calmly talk through your differences, and find a solution. But what if nothing seems to work, no matter what you do?

When situations resist resolution, the Optimal Outcomes Method teaches us conflict freedom.

Based on her popular course at Columbia University, Dr. Jennifer Goldman-Wetzler reveals eight groundbreaking practices proven to disrupt recurring conflict and help people everywhere free themselves from the “conflict loop”.

Blending mindfulness, Jungian psychology, and practical, step-by-step advice this book will free anyone from seemingly impossible conflict. Once you learn and apply these practices, you’ll reach your Optimal Outcome—which may be vastly different from what you originally imagined, but more satisfying than you ever dreamed possible.
