Conflict Managed

When You Don’t Know What To Do, Do No Harm Until You Know What To Do

Work can be uncertain. What should you do when the next steps are unclear? Our guest today on Conflict Managed, Dr. Keith Carver, advises when you don’t know what to do, do no harm until you know what to do.
Keith Carver became the 11th chancellor of the University of Tennessee at Martin in 2017. Prior to his position with the UT System, Keith held various positions on the UT campuses in Knoxville, Martin, and Memphis, including serving as interim vice chancellor for development and alumni affairs at the UT Health Science Center in Memphis and as assistant vice chancellor for development at UT Martin. He holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology from the University of Memphis, and a master’s degree in college student personnel and educational leadership as well as a doctoral degree from UT Knoxville.
Listen in on my conversation with Dr. Carver as he talks about the anatomy of an excellent team, the benefits of listening to those around you, the value of having a mentor and being a good mentee, how to address mistakes and crises at work, and the importance of addressing workplace mental health and wellbeing.

Mentorship for the Win

Do you know you're being watched at work? Of course you are. We are social creatures and take our cues from the people around us. We are modeling behavior and in turn, mentoring others for good or ill. Today we are joined by Judah Brown, a senior Political Science and Philosophy major at the University of Tennessee at Martin. Judah talks to us about the excellent mentor he works for, the frustration of working in organizations that lack a clear plan, the importance of company values for Gen Z, and the value of accountability in the workplace.

Conflict Managed Introduction

Conflict Managed is a podcast about toxic workplaces and how to fix them. Listen to stories of dysfunction and triumph from different walks of life and professions. Join us on the journey as we talk about the good, bad, and ugly of our work environments and discuss visions for the future of human-centered workplaces where people are not only treated with dignity and respect but encouraged to be their brilliant selves. Managing conflict is not magic, though it takes intentional and sustained planning for health to win over chaos in any environment.
