Having worked with Phillis Morgan at several training seminars for federal managers, I’ve been impressed with how she was able to inspire folks with years of management experience to open themselves up to the concept and practice of mindfulness. Now that she has written this book, I am pleased that a new and wider population of managers will benefit from her insights learned through years of research and experience. By laying out a step-wise mindfulness-based process that anyone can follow, she is helping managers foster workplace relationships that are stronger and will allow for higher quality decisions that do not allow fear of conflict to get in the way. Phillis has provided managers with a blueprint for success when confronting conflict in the workplace. We are in her debt.

Managing conflict well starts with managing self well — how we think about, feel about, and respond to conflict. In her wonderfully innovative book, Resilient in Conflict, Phillis Morgan, J.D., embraces this concept fully, and using mindfulness practices, provides a practical, easy-to-understanding and useful guide for leaders and managers of any organization to engage conflict with more clarity, awareness, intention, and "resilience." An insightful read.

Written with candor and conviction, Resilient in Conflict is must reading for any leader looking for ways to address workplace conflict from the inside-out. Phillis Morgan’s insightful narrative addresses the tension that comes with conflict and offers powerful prescriptions for developing confidence, self - insight and resilience. A wonderful storyteller, Phillis delivers that rare combination of mindset development, skill acquisition, and lessons to develop the catalysts needed to become a more skillful leader when it comes to conflict and other difficult situations. I am grateful to Phillis for putting her life’s work into the universe and have made the book required reading in my Emotional Intelligence classes.

As people are invited to bring more of their whole self into the workplace and public domain, the changes will be unsettling for many and conflicts sure to arise. Leaders need to be prepared with new tools and a new perspective to navigate this shifting landscape. Through a three-decade career working with the highest levels of government and corporate America, Phillis Morgan lays out a practical approach for leaders to bring mindfulness to confront the opportunities workplace conflicts present.

Phillis Morgan has a clear vision of a healthy workplace — it is one where managers don't run from conflict. She incorporates mindfulness practices as an essential path for not only moving beyond the fear of conflict, but also learning to accept it with courage. I've had the great pleasure of working with Phillis on live presentations as well as her previous book. She never runs from challenges. She embraces them. And this spirit of embracing that which we find challenging I am confident will enliven leaders, managers, and supervisors who read this book.
