Chandler Chats with Emily Brown - Handling High Conflict with Jason Craige Harris

In this week’s episode of Chandler Chats, I am  joined by Learning Together speaker Jason Craige Harris for a timely and thought-provoking conversation about conflict - what it is, why it’s unavoidable and how we can learn to engage conflict more skillfully within our school and broader community. 

Drawing from his work with educators, parents and organizations, Jason reframes conflict as a natural and essential part of being human, one that often goes awry not because of bad intentions, but because most of us were never taught how to navigate it well. Together, we explore the importance of modeling healthy conflict resolution for children in our care. It’s a meaningful discussion about dignity, relationship-building and the skills we need to prepare students, and ourselves, to engage in productive, respectful conflict in an increasingly complex world.
