Robin Funsten: How Understanding Conflict Can Improve Our Lives

In this presentation from TEDx Tyron (11:58), mediator and conflict consultant Robin Funsten shares how understanding conflict provides an opportunity for positive change. She suggests that there are three central roots to most conflicts: limited resources, unmet needs, and different values. The ideas of this talk shed new light on how we can understand the conflict, reunion and reconciliation of Jacob and Esau described in the Book of Genesis.
