How do you work with people you don’t like or trust?

Adam Kahane has been involved in some of the world’s most enduring and disruptive conflicts as a peace or progress facilitator: Colombia’s civil war, South Africa’s transition from apartheid, Northern Ireland and Guatemala after genocide.

When former Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos received the Nobel Peace Prize, he referred to a meeting with Adam Kahane as one of the most significant events in the country’s search for peace. Former President of South Africa Nelson Mandela also credited Kahane’s work in helping his country post-apartheid.

How do you collaborate with the enemy? How do you work with people you don’t like or trust?

Adam Kahane talks about how it’s possible for organizations, governments, and workplaces to achieve this.
