Optimal outcomes

Więcej o książce

An award-winning conflict consultant presents a new approach for when agreement and collaboration seem impossible, teaching that freedom can be achieved even without others' cooperation. Traditional methods focus on collaboration, encouraging calm discussions to find solutions. But what if those efforts fail? The Optimal Outcomes Method offers a way to attain conflict freedom. Based on her popular course at Columbia University, Dr. Jennifer Goldman-Wetzler introduces eight innovative practices that empower individuals to liberate themselves from conflict. This transformative process can quickly disrupt entrenched patterns. Through inspiring stories from clients, students, and her own experiences, you'll learn to achieve Optimal Outcomes by observing complex situations with clarity, acknowledging your emotions, reconciling your ideal values with hidden priorities, anticipating the unintended consequences of your actions, and taking bold, unexpected steps. Drawing from her training at Harvard Law School, extensive consulting experience, grassroots work with Middle Eastern leaders, and research on terrorism, this method combines mindfulness, Jungian psychology, and practical advice. By applying these practices, you'll discover your Optimal Outcome, which may differ from your initial expectations but be far more fulfilling.
