The Leader in You
63. L-TEMPO Turning Conflict into Connection at Work and Beyond
In this episode of The Leader in You Podcast, Dr. Lola Gershfeld and Polina explore a powerful new framework for understanding conflict and restoring balance - L-TEMPO. Just like dancing, relationships move to a rhythm, and emotions are the music that guides us.
El TEMPO stands for:
- L – Longing for connection
- T – Triggers
- E – Emotions
- M – Meaning
- P – Protective behaviors
- O – Organizing
Together, Lola and Polina break down each step, showing how teams and leaders can use this simple yet transformative process to repair disconnections, regulate emotions, and return to accessibility, responsiveness, and engagement. You’ll also hear how even humor and music can become tools for emotional balance—turning tense moments into opportunities for connection.
Whether you’re navigating workplace conflicts, family dynamics, or team challenges, this episode gives you a practical way to understand and work with emotions, so you can create secure and thriving relationships in any setting.
