What If Conflict Wasn't Your Enemy?

Handle Conflict. Build Confidence. Negotiate Better.

A 2-hour workshop to help you master everyday negotiations with clarity and calm.

Conflict isn’t your enemy—it’s your opportunity. Inspired by ReCity Network and his TEDxDuke talk, “What if Conflict Wasn’t Your Enemy?” (watch here), negotiation coach Dr. Sam Bayer brings a fresh, creative perspective to handling tough conversations. Instead of dreading conflict, you’ll learn to see it as a springboard for growth, creativity, and stronger relationships.

What You’ll Experience:

• Discover the Negotiating AGENT framework—a practical, step-by-step approach for resolving conflict and negotiating win-win outcomes, even in everyday situations.
• Learn how to stay grounded when tensions rise and distinguish what people want from what they truly need.
• Practice helping others win—without giving up what matters to you.
• Craft agreements that actually stick, using real stories, guided exercises, and hands-on practice.

Whether you’re a freelancer, founder, creative, or consultant, you’ll walk away with actionable tools you can use immediately. Come ready to shift your mindset and turn conflict into an opportunity for learning and connection.
