Presentation Title: 

Fruitful Friction ™ Staying in conversation for Productive Outcomes

In today's fast-paced work environments, unresolved conflict is more than an interpersonal challenge—it's a costly drain on time, resources, and productivity. Research shows that workplace conflict results in billions of dollars in lost productivity annually, not to mention the personal toll on employee morale and engagement. But friction doesn’t have to derail progress. Friction is inevitable, but conflict doesn’t have to be. In this dynamic workshop, discover how to transform tension into a catalyst for growth, collaboration, and innovation.

Led by communication expert Hilary Blair, this session offers engaging exercises and practical tools to help you reframe friction as a source of creativity. Learn how to navigate tough conversations, manage diverse viewpoints, and turn communication challenges into opportunities for success—while saving time and resources that are often wasted in prolonged conflicts.
