Gordon White takes a transformative orientation to the conflict experience and what it offers to the growth of both individuals and organizations. He contends that becoming more competent at conflict engagement and conflict resolution entails responding more effectively to oneself, as well as responding more effectively to others. White blogs regularly on topics relevant to conflict engagement and organizational dynamism.
