The 5 Cs of Conflict Resolution: Secrets of a Peacebuilder
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why do some people seem able to step into almost any conflict and help people find a way forward? It isn't magic. It's actually a set of learnable skills.
In this episode, Jeremy Pollack, Ph.D., introduces the 5 Cs of Conflict Resolution—the essential capacities that professional peacebuilders rely on to navigate difficult conversations and transform conflict into collaboration.
You'll learn how curiosity, communication, care, collaboration, and creativity work together to create better outcomes, whether you're leading a team, navigating workplace disagreements, or working through conflict at home.
These five skills all depend on your prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain responsible for thoughtful decision-making, empathy, and problem-solving. When stress or conflict escalates, that part of the brain becomes less accessible, making it harder to respond the way you want to. That's why understanding the neuroscience behind conflict is just as important as learning conflict resolution techniques.
This episode explores one of the seven neuroscience-based principles from Jeremy's new book, Wired for Peace: Using 7 Neuroscience-Based Principles to Resolve Conflicts, offering practical insights you can begin applying immediately.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- The five core skills every effective peacebuilder develops
- Why curiosity is often more powerful than persuasion
- How neuroscience explains why conflict can derail good communication
- The hidden prerequisite that makes all five Cs possible
- Practical ways to improve conflict resolution in leadership, work, and everyday life
