How Yield Theory Can Help you Handle Conflict, Improve Your Life and Find Peace
Dr. Conte is well-known for saying that there are two kinds of people in the world: People with issues and, well, dead people. So that means if you’re alive, you have issues. But that’s okay, because so does Dr. Conte, and so does everyone else on the planet. When issues collide, however, conflict arises, and in an increasingly volatile world, conflict can readily escalate to violence; that is why, more than ever, understanding how to genuinely handle conflict is one of the most important skills any of us can learn. Twenty-five years ago, Dr. Conte created Yield Theory, now an evidence-based approach to communication and de-escalation, and he has spent his career dedicated to helping people handle conflict (both others’ and their own). In this lively, dynamic and quite frankly life-changing presentation, Dr. Conte will draw on his masterful storytelling and wildly unique and interesting experiences to share how you can walk away with hands-on techniques that you will be able to immediately integrate in your life.

“Assessing Organizational Crises- Evaluating the Human Impact” (2007)
Organizations worldwide cannot escape crises. Crises effect more than productivity, they often profoundly impact people's lives. In an age of quantification, measuring the extent to which humans are impacted during crises is paramount. This present study delivers an argument for brief and pragmatic organizational crisis assessment instruments. Furthermore, a specific instrument's (the TAS:O) psychometric properties are evaluated. The results indicate that pragmatic instruments evaluating the human impact of crises are possible, and cutting edge research demonstrates that highly valid and reliable organizational assessment surveys are likely to be a staple of future organizational crisis management.
