Ep 186, The Gift of Difficult Feedback

This week on Conflict Managed, we welcome Tinna Jackson. Join us as we discuss:

• Building comradery and community at work
• Letting others know your greatness
• Closing the gap between effective leadership and the employee experience
• Tinna’s new book, The Power Play Journal
• Honest leadership (self-knowledge)

Conflict Managed is available wherever you listen to podcasts and on YouTube @ 3pconflictrestoration.  

Tinna Jackson brings nearly three decades guiding executives through high-stakes challenges—first inside the U.S. Senate and major committees, now as a nationally recognized executive coach and bestselling author. Her work dives deep into the tactical realities leaders face when the stakes are high, decisions carry real weight, and navigating power dynamics becomes the heart of effective conflict management.

She has helped top leaders and organizations reset culture, build constructive influence, and lead with authority during moments that test everything from emotional intelligence to strategic clarity. Tinna’s experience sits right at the intersection what we wrestle with daily: managing relationships, surfacing tough conversations, and driving outcomes under real-world stress.

Her award-winning book, The Power Play Journal, has resonated with executives seeking practical approaches to influence and resilience.

Conflict Managed is hosted by Merry Brown and produced by Third Party Workplace Conflict Restoration Services.
