The Power of Positive Conflict
What successful founders do differently.

and growth.

THE PROFLICT TEAM WORKSHOP
From Tension to Traction
Turning conflict into faster innovation and

practical tools to navigate the real conversations they’ve been avoiding. Through guided exercises,

damaging trust — transforming friction into clarity, stronger decisions, and forward momentum.
