I See You, You See Me: Leading Conversations Through Conflict in Music Industry
For the first edition of our online webinar series, we welcome Elizabeth Cyprian for a conversation on one of the most overlooked realities of working in music: conflict.
From festivals and touring to artist teams, venues and collaborations, the music industry moves fast, under pressure, and often without much space to process difficult moments. Miscommunication, tension and emotional overload are part of the landscape. But what if conflict could become something we move through differently?
In “I See You, You See Me: Leading Conversations Through Conflict”, Elizabeth shares practical tools for navigating difficult conversations with more awareness, empathy and clarity, grounded in over 15 years of experience across the global electronic music industry.
Together, we’ll explore:
• How to stay grounded in high-stress situations • Why differences inside teams matter more than we think • How to take responsibility without carrying blame • A simple framework for navigating difficult conversations • Practical tools for turning tension into connection
The session will include simple grounding practices, interactive exercises, relatable stories from life inside the industry, and practical communication tools that can be applied immediately.
Whether you’re an artist, promoter, manager, venue worker, freelancer or simply navigating intense creative environments, this webinar is designed to offer practical support for the realities behind the scenes.
