In a June 27th piece, The Fulcrum staff dove into the new book, From Conflict to Convergence: Coming Together to Solve Tough Problems, by Convergence Founder and First CEO, Rob Fersh, and Convergence CEO and President, Mariah Levison. The piece highlighted motivation behind the book capturing Rob and Mariah noting that,

“We want to share our approach because we passionately believe that widespread employment of collaborative problem-solving can lead to a more civil and functional world. Taken to scale, it can be an important antidote to the deepening divides in civic culture. Collaborative problem-solving is a powerful and proven response to the growing doubts in the US and elsewhere that people who see things differently can work cooperatively to achieve important gains.”

From Conflict to Convergence: Coming Together to Solve Tough Problems, is available for pre-order and is coming out on July 30th!
