In episode 40, we welcome back Amy Gallo, co-host of HBR’s Women at Work podcast and the brilliant author of ‘Getting Along: How to Work with Anyone (Even Difficult People)’ to discuss conflict, communication and navigating challenging workplace dynamics. 

Amy and I discuss:
Why emotional regulation is so important and how to create space in challenging situations
Establishing team psychological safety
The power of euphoric thinking

Annette Sloan and I sum-up the three biggest takeaways from my conversation with Amy, and we answer a listener's question about feeling disconnected and lonely at work and how to know when it’s time for a change.

Tune in to learn how to navigate emotionally charged and challenging situations in work and life.

And if you’d like even more from Amy, dive into our earlier interview with Amy here.
