When we come across conflicts between different teams, but important in the execution, such as sound and lighting, we need to stop the conflict immediately. To this end, good technical and artistic directors help with mediation, bringing the teams together and defining the best solution to the impasse. Or, work with full-service companies, which can fully meet the demand.

When sound and lighting teams clash on-site, the key to resolving their differences is open communication and collaboration. Encourage both teams to express their concerns, focusing on shared goals and the bigger picture: a seamless event. By fostering a space for constructive dialogue and finding common ground, you can turn conflict into an opportunity for creative problem-solving and teamwork.
