## Resource

Fifty million people woke at 4 AM to watch a six-nation field hockey tournament that could have devolved into a brawl in the first 60 seconds. In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy draws on the story of Olympic umpire Steve Horrigan, who turned a brewing international melee into 69 minutes of brilliant hockey, to show why constructive conflict is the most underused leadership tool in any organization. The insight at the center: instead of asking what is right with your idea, ask what is wrong with it. Darren also shares the Constructive Candor framework his own A-Team uses, and why trust is the one currency that makes healthy disagreement possible.
