That C Word

Have you ever walked into a room and felt instantly overwhelmed because you felt hyper-aware of everyone’s energy and emotions? According to the Myers-Briggs assessment, you might identify as a ‘feeler’ (or an F). 

Differences between personality types are a part of every single workplace conflict I have ever mediated and I’ve seen a lot of conflicts between the ‘thinkers’ and ‘feelers’. In this episode of That C Word, I welcome long-time friend and collaborator Roxanne Carter-Thompson, Executive Director of The Adventure Group to share her strategy for turning that superpower on when she needs it and how to dial it back for self-preservation. Join us as we chat about conflict, that ‘c’ word, and how clashing personality types can lead to workplace conflict.
