Workshop

Handle conflict

A conflict-handling workshop for those who need help resolving conflicts. But it’s also for those who want to see how conflict can strengthen your collaboration, togetherness, psychological safety and wellbeing in general.

About the workshop

Teams that discuss things openly make up to 42% better decisions — and have far fewer problems carrying them out afterwards. It doesn’t take more agreement — it takes better conflict handling. Because a conflict is rarely about the actual topic. It’s about how we perceive the situation.

High-performing teams aren’t afraid of disagreement. They have a clear agreement about exactly that — and it gives them the freedom for open communication, even when it’s hard. If you have cappuccino relationships, where people slip off to the coffee machine when things get uncomfortable, it might be time for something more effective.

What you take away

Strengthen your conflict handling and separate the issue from the person — so your communication and collaboration are strengthened by your differences.

The relationship must never be at stake —
because it’s the freedom to disagree that strengthens it

Vestas was facing an exciting, challenging year — Martin left us laughing, arms in the air, full of enthusiasm and courage.

With his talk on high-performance teams, he really got to grips with our situation and held our full attention for three hours. And we’re still applauding…

Frequently asked questions

Martin’s entertaining workshop is relevant for the team, the leadership and the whole organisation.

Also without active conflicts?

A healthy worry. The workshop isn’t about finding conflicts, but about giving you tools for the disagreements that always come up. The point is prevention, not confrontation. You leave with better collaboration — not a list of unresolved cases.

Can the workshop be combined with other themes?

Yes. It’s strongest alongside the themes of psychological safety and engagement. Safety is the precondition for disagreement to reach the table. Engagement is what makes you commit to what you agreed afterwards. Together, the three themes become a whole, where disagreement turns into quality.

If the word “conflict” is a barrier?

An understandable reservation. Conflict handling covers everything from big disagreements to engaged discussions with the guard down. It’s about wellbeing and about making good decisions together. Martin makes it instructive and entertaining, so the word “conflict” loses its weight along the way.

Where and how long?

Martin runs workshops across Denmark and abroad. The workshop lasts up to an hour.
