AC4’s Peter Coleman Speaks at Young Presidents Organization at Columbia

Building a Bridge from Research to the Real World
Faculty to Global Leaders Connects Leading Scholars with YPO and WPO Members

Faculty to Global Leaders is a unique industry-faculty initiative with a far-reaching vision: connecting YPO-WPO with eight centers of excellence to create idea exchange at the frontier of the future.

Thinkers and doers, professors, and chief executives will be connected within a specific educational framework designed to encourage mutual transfer of ideas and knowledge.

Professor Coleman, a world-renowned expert on conflict resolution, is professor of psychology and education at Columbia University, director of the Morton Deutsch International Center for Cooperation and Conflict Resolution (MD-ICCCR), Executive Director of the Advanced Consortium on Cooperation Conflict and Complexity (AC4) and on the faculties of Teachers College and The Earth Institute.

Making Conflict Work teaches you how to identify the nature of a conflict, determine your power position relative to your adversaries, and enact the best tactical approach for achieving your goals.
