Loving Across the Political Divide with Sheila Heen

This 2013 conversation with Sheila Heen, faculty member at the Harvard Negotiation Project, was a fun one. Sheila and her husband, who are both experts at helping people talk through difficult disagreements, have opposing political beliefs. The interview is full of great advice on communicating respectfully and usefully when you disagree with someone, and explores the idea that when we listen receptively, we actually become more persuasive.
