Healthy Conflict - The Leadership Skill No One Teaches with Dr. Irvine Nugent
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Conflict is unavoidable in mission-driven work, but avoiding it can quietly erode trust, morale, and effectiveness. In this episode of Nonprofit Nerd®: Impact Unleashed, host Jarrett Ransom sits down with conflict resolution expert and nonprofit leader Dr. Irvine Nugent to unpack why conflict is a normal part of human interaction and how emotional intelligence transforms the way leaders navigate difficult conversations. Together, they explore what healthy conflict actually looks like, how curiosity and respect can shift tension into connection, and practical steps leaders can take this week to address avoided conversations with confidence and clarity. This honest, actionable discussion offers nonprofit professionals the mindset and tools needed to turn conflict into an opportunity for growth and stronger teams.
