Debate club: how to deal with conflict

Debate Club is a conversation format that helps people get better at understanding and discussing conflicting ideas.

In a friendly, informal environment, in this session you'll:

• Hear about why we launched Debate Club
• Find out what we've learned since starting it
• Learn how you can run a debate
• Take part in a fun debate session

By the end, we hope you'll gain greater confidence in independent thinking while celebrating diversity of thought.

Participant Takeaways:

• Practical tools to apply to their own work.
• Inspiration to practise interpersonal, flexible skills that may have been left unpolished by not working in-person with others.
• Fresh perspectives: participants will hear what we've learned, and how to run similar sessions themselves.
• A novel experience: participants will learn how debating (a necessary, everyday activity), can become a constructive and fun part of team culture, as we celebrate diversity of thought and build better relationships with our teams.
