Communication failures are a leading contributor to preventable medical errors and adverse patient outcomes.
When conflict goes unaddressed in healthcare settings, it doesn't just harm team morale β€” it directly undermines patient safety, care coordination, and clinical outcomes across every specialty and practice setting.
Course Overview

Conflict is inevitable.
How you navigate it isn't.

Conflict is inevitable in healthcare settings. How leaders navigate disagreement determines whether it becomes destructive or drives positive change.

This intensive two-session online workshop equips physicians, providers, and healthcare leaders with essential skills to manage conflict constructively, conduct difficult conversations with confidence, and lead teams through challenging situations.

Using the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument and proven communication frameworks, participants gain insight into their conflict tendencies and develop practical strategies for addressing challenging interpersonal dynamics. You'll learn to transform potential conflicts into opportunities for growth, ultimately fostering healthier workplace environments and better patient outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What you need to know.

What is the TKI?

The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument identifies your five conflict-handling modes and helps you understand when each is most effective. It's been used by over 8 million people worldwide and is backed by 40+ years of peer-reviewed research β€” the most widely used conflict assessment in the world.

What will a coaching session look like?

Your 30-minute private session is tailored specifically to your TKI results. Your coach will help you understand your patterns β€” especially under stress β€” and develop concrete strategies for the conflict scenarios most relevant to your role. Sessions are conducted via Zoom.

How much time does this require in total?

The total time commitment is approximately 2 hours: 15–20 minutes for the TKI assessment (completed beforehand at your own pace), 60 minutes for the live webinar on May 5th, and 30 minutes for your private coaching session, which is flexibly scheduled after the webinar.

What if I can't attend the live webinar?

No problem β€” the webinar will be recorded and available for 90 days. However, we recommend attending live to participate in the Q&A and group discussion, as the live format adds significant value to the learning experience.

What if I already know my conflict style?

Even if you are pretty sure you know how you handle conflict, the TKI can help you understand how your style use shows up relative to those around you. The coaching session can help you understand not just what your style is, but when and how to flex into different approaches.

Is this only for physicians in leadership roles?

Not at all. In fact, the learning environment is richer when it includes representation from a variety of roles and perspectives. Any physician, NP, PA, nurse or healthcare professional who deals with difficult conversations, team dynamics or organizational conflict will benefit.

Will this course be offered again?

Yes β€” we plan to offer this course periodically. Each cohort is intentionally limited in size to protect the quality of private coaching sessions. If this cohort fills, the next opportunity won't be available until later in the year.

What is the cancellation policy?

All cancellations must be submitted in writing β€” phone cancellations are not accepted. Cancellation requests must be received by April 7, 2026 to be eligible for a refund.
