Book Launch - "Înțelepciunea conflictului", by Magor Csibi & Raluca Anton
Beyonders Community joint event with NEMIRA
Some of the conversations that bring us closer are also the ones we put off the longest.
In our teams, relationships, and communities, silence can feel like a sign that everything is fine. But what happens when it conceals things that need to be said? And what becomes possible when we find the courage to say them?
On November 12 at 6:30 PM, we’re inviting the community to join us at Sala Luceafărul in Bucharest for the launch of “Înțelepciunea conflictului. De ce liniștea aparentă este mai distructivă decât conflictul asumat” by Magor Csibi and Raluca Anton - a book exploring the wisdom of conflict and why an apparent peace can be more damaging than an openly acknowledged disagreement.
This evening is especially meaningful to us. Magor is our leadership trainer at Beyond Business School, and the questions this book raises connect closely to what we explore together: how to lead with greater awareness, build trust, and stay open when conversations become difficult.
We’re also happy to continue our relationship with Nemira Publishing House, with whom we’ve collaborated on several occasions over the past few years.
As community partners for this launch, we’re bringing our community together around a topic that touches all of us.
What can we learn from the conflicts we’re willing to face?
Through twelve real stories from people in sport, journalism, business, and public life, the book explores boundaries, fears, tensions, and moments when staying silent is no longer an answer. Magor and Raluca invite us to look beneath the disagreement and understand the emotions, needs, and stories behind it.
Alex Nedea, Paula Herlo, Daniel Giurcă, Ana-Maria Brânză, Gáspár György, Paul Olteanu, Andreea Raicu, Horia Tecău, Cristina Andone, Steven van Groningen, Marius Ștefan, and Andrea Annamaria Chiș share deeply personal stories of tension, boundaries, fear, and loss - and the moments when they finally chose to break their silence.
Their stories take us from the conflicts we face with others to the ones that ask us to look more closely at ourselves. What does speaking up cost us? What remains unresolved when we avoid a difficult conversation? Can we repair what has been broken — and how do we move forward when we can’t?
At the launch, the authors and their guests will explore how we can become more comfortable with conflict — and what it can teach us about ourselves and our relationships.
Bring your curiosity, your questions, and perhaps a conversation you’ve been meaning to have. We’d love to share this evening with you.
