Make Conflict Transformational

Build the capacity for enhanced perspective, deeper personal insights, and new skills for communicating purposefully with others when disputes arise.

Are you Reacting or Constructively Engaging When Tensions Arise?

Do you understand the true source of your triggers or are you caught in seeing issues as solely arising externally? Does the word conflict cause you anxiety, making you want to retreat or avoid uncomfortable interaction? Are you frustrated with interpersonal or team dynamics and feel doomed that the negativity will continue to spiral? Perhaps you are exhausted from constantly managing other people’s emotions and keeping the peace? Or are you comfortable with conflict, maybe even reaching resolutions you like, yet often end up with fractured or terminated relationships? Then working with Tenacity Rising is for you

Who Taught You How to Have Conflict?

Primarily we learned through osmosis, patterning or responding to the examples that were set for us first by our primary caregivers and later by authority figures, peers, and intimate partners. But this doesn’t mean we’re set up for success, rather we are molded by experience and neurobiologically triggered vs. working to insightfully and effectively interact with ourselves and others. But we can learn to step away from habitual and emotional reactions and build new skills to engage mindfully and productively in conflict resolution.

About

Conflict Is an Opportunity

Tenacity Rising’s founder Cinzia Lombardo used to think that conflict was something that should be proactively managed or all together avoided. A natural peacekeeper and social connector, she exhausted herself by constantly attempting to manage her interpersonal dynamics and that of others to ensure harmonious interactions. Why? Because she thought conflict was negative and peace was to be preserved at all costs. But along her professional and personal life’s journey she learned the power of co-constructive solution building, productive discord, and leveraging conflict as one’s greatest opportunity for growth and transformation.

So, Tenacity Rising was started not only to provide individuals, businesses, and communities with empowering conflict resolution services, but to also inspire the kind of perspective and interactional shifts that change our world when conflict is leveraged as an opportunity for better understanding and new outcomes.
