Conflict isn’t always destructive — in fact, the most effective leaders know how to harness it. Join Vance Crowe, communications consultant, podcast host, and former Director of Millennial Engagement at Monsanto, for an energizing session on how to engage in productive conflict so you can get the best outcome possible.
In just 30 minutes, Vance will share:
• Why conflict is an essential part of progress and innovation
• How to disagree without being disagreeable
• Tools for turning tense conversations into collaborative opportunities
Vance has worked with leaders across agriculture, science, and business, helping organizations and individuals learn how to tell their stories, challenge ideas constructively, and build stronger relationships through conflict. With his unique background in global communications, public policy, and podcasting, he brings both big-picture perspective and practical techniques you can put to work right away.
This session is designed for early- to mid-career professionals who want to sharpen their leadership skills, improve collaboration, and walk away with confidence in navigating disagreements productively.
