About this episode
Before Jessi sat down with champion debater and disagreement expert Bo Seo, our team would have mostly told you that the goal of a solid relationship or colleagueship is being able to avoid disagreement. But Bo schooled us on the real opposite of bad disagreement: GOOD disagreement! Bo’s work teaches us that avoiding conflict isn’t the best path to good relationships. It’s learning to listen and be heard, keeping in mind that disagreement can be a creative act, and above all else, remembering that our arguments are human, just like we are. Follow Bo Seo on LinkedIn, and check out his book, Good Arguments , now available in paperback. Follow Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn and order her debut memoir .
