Successful teams. High-performing colleagues and workplaces. Dynamic friend groups. Yet many of us don’t understand the crucial element we need to forge long-lasting communities in our lives: healthy conflict. \nIn The Art of Fighting\, Priya Parker explains that we can’t form and grow effective relationships without a fight. She rejects the idea that conflict is abnormal or that good groups don’t fight. All groups change and evolve; indeed\, it’s because people disagree that good groups flourish. \nAs she did in the now-classic The Art of Gathering\, Parker draws on her far-reaching experience as a conflict facilitator\, her own detailed research\, and real-world examples to lay out the ways that people can identify disputes\, determine how to address them\, and what to do if they are insurmountable. Whether people disagree in the boardroom or the locker room\, on a playground or in church\, online or in person\, conflict is a part of life\, and understanding healthy conflict and how to harness its power is more important than ever. The Art of Fighting is a vital primer to help all of us understand how to do that. \n \nPriya Parker is a conflict facilitator\, strategic adviser\, and the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters. Trained in the field of conflict resolution\, Parker has worked on race relations on American college campuses and on peace processes in the Arab world\, southern Africa\, and India. A graduate of MIT\, the Harvard Kennedy School\, and the University of Virginia\, she lives with her family in Brooklyn\, New York. \n \nAmerica Ferrera is an Oscar ® -nominated and Emmy ® -\, Golden Globe ® – and Screen Actors Guild Award-winning actress\, director\, producer and activist. Ferrera starred as ‘Gloria’ in the record-breaking BARBIE\, for which she garnered an Academy Award nomination. A longtime activist\, Ferrera co-founded Harness\, a community of artists\, influencers and grassroots leaders leveraging art and storytelling to power change\, and co-leads Poderistas\, a digital lifestyle community and non-profit organization\, built to inspire\, inform and affirm the Latina community. Ferrera serves as a Global Goodwill Ambassador for the UN’s International Organization for Migration (IOM)\, through which she champions safe migration\, women’s rights\, and civic engagement.
