How to Talk to People You Profoundly Disagree With | Shamil Idriss

How do you find common ground with someone you profoundly disagree with?


At a time when political, religious, and cultural divisions seem deeper than ever, peacebuilder Shamil Idriss, CEO of Search for Common Ground, shares what decades of bringing people together have taught him about trust, conflict, and human connection.


In this conversation with Chip Conley, Shamil explores:

  • Why being heard and respected matters more than being agreed with
  • How building trust before a crisis can bridge even deep divides
  • Why curiosity is more powerful than judgment
  • How taking just one meaningful action can restore hope
  • Why today’s breakdown may ultimately lead to breakthrough


From global conflicts to disagreements in our own communities, Shamil offers a hopeful reminder that our futures are interconnected, and that each of us can help build common ground.


Watch now to discover how connection can begin, even when we disagree.
