Your anger has much to teach you. If you listen well, it can transform your life and even transform the world. Honour your anger. Deborah White likes to consider herself "The problem solver with a pen". After assisting people with conflicts and differences for many years, she now feels fairly certain she knows a few things about conflict. Years of schooling helped, she has a Bachelors Degree in Social Work, a Masters in Applied Behavioural Science,and a Certificate in Conflict Resolution, butit was in the trenches that she learned the most. Now that she thinks she has something to say about conflict, you can often find her waxing eloquent at the Centre for Conflict Resolution, Justice Institute of British Columbia (JIBC). When she is not teaching you may find her out in an organization somewhere assisting folks to figure out what the "heck" is going on. She mediates, facilitates, coaches and she also walks her neighbours' dogs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
