An Unhelpful Myth: It’s Just Business (In Situations of Legal Conflict)

An unhelpful myth in situations of legal conflict is ‘It's just business’.

We quite often hear ‘It's just business’ in times of legal conflict and if you listen more closely, what are you really hearing?

Are we hearing it coming from a place of kindness or weakness?

Are we hearing it coming from a place of bigger purpose or about self?

Are we hearing it come from an expansive view or a defensive view?

Way more helpful than the generalisation of ‘Its only business’ is, as a leader, will my next action move this up the spiral for positive impact?

Or will my next action, move this down the spiral to greater and greater conflict?
