Do you manage the situation or the person? What are the best practices to mitigate the problem and deescalate the incident? Denis Rudd and Tom Wilk will open your view screens to the multitude of techniques that can be used to address conflict in business environments. Through the lens (flare) of Star Trek, they will eradicate your preconceived notions about conflict. Set your phasers to stun and get ready for warp!
