This week on Conflict Managed we welcome Andre W. Thornton. Together we explore:

• The gift of asking questions
• Thinking through failure, and what it means
• The 1440 method
• What does your average perfect day look like?
• O.S.E.ing
• In conflict, there is always something to learn from the other person
• People are likely to listen when they’ve heard
• Leadership question: Why would someone volunteer to follow you?
• Leaning into conflict to strengthen relationships
• Andre’s new book, Disrupted

Conflict Managed is available wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube @3pconflictrestoration

Andre W. Thornton is the founder and CEO of Whitman Consulting, one of the top ten leadership-development firms in the US, which helps organizations grow their people faster than their challenges.

A former engineering director at Lockheed Martin, Andre spent sixteen years leading teams on advanced aircraft programs and capturing over $1 billion in new business before discovering his true calling: developing leaders.

His book, Disrupted, introduces the two stabilizers and seven accelerators that turn chaos into growth—a framework drawn from neuroscience, engineering, and two decades of coaching experience.

Andre helps executives and teams raise their baseline, shorten recovery, and lead with clarity in times of change. He lives in Maryland with his wife, Myesha, and their two children.
