Conflict Happens — Leadership Is How You Handle It

Conflict at work is inevitable — but chaos doesn’t have to be.

In this episode, Marty shares a simple four-step framework for handling employee conflict calmly and effectively. Whether it’s two employees who just can’t get along or tension that’s been simmering for weeks, this episode gives you practical tools to bring clarity and resolution.

🪄 You’ll Learn:

• How to spot conflict early — before it spreads
• What to say (and not say) in difficult conversations
• How to focus on behavior instead of personality
• A step-by-step method to guide employees toward solutions

🧭 Key Takeaway: When you handle conflict early and with clarity, you don’t just fix a problem — you strengthen your culture.
