Welcome to ‘The Sweet Illusion – Understanding Dishonest Harmony.’ In this course, we’ll uncover how the illusion of peace can quietly undermine your team and organization. Let’s dive in.

Here’s what we’ll achieve in this course. Our goal is to help you understand dishonest harmony, recognize why it happens, and equip you to spot it in your own workplace.

• Define dishonest harmony and distinguish it from healthy conflict.
• Identify the key psychological and cultural drivers of dishonest harmony.
• Recognize the signs and symptoms of suppressed conflict.
• Understand the long-term consequences of dishonest harmony.
