SCI TV SPORTS CONFLICT ADVANTAGE

Where Sports Law, Governance, and Conflict Resolution Shape Championship Organizations

SCI TV features in-depth conversations with leading practitioners in sports conflict resolution, negotiation capability building, and governance excellence. Our expert guests share evidence-based frameworks and best practices that transform how organizations prevent and resolve conflict. While maintaining strict confidentiality standards that prevent discussion of specific cases, each episode explores proven methodologies for building sustainable negotiation systems, implementing dispute resolution protocols, and creating cultures where conflict prevention becomes a competitive advantage.

Drawing from the frameworks in Gordon and Furlong’s Strategic Negotiation and Gordon, Furlong, and Pendleton’s The Sports Playbook, SCI TV demonstrates how elite organizations build institutional capability rather than rely on individual talent. Episodes examine the hidden costs of conflict—from million-dollar negotiation failures to championship-destroying team friction—while providing field-tested frameworks for prevention, resolution, and organizational capability building that work in the complex realities of modern sport. Whether you’re building dispute resolution systems for athletic departments, developing negotiation capability across your organization, or seeking to understand how sports law intersects with organizational performance, SCI TV provides the strategic intelligence that separates reactive crisis management from proactive excellence.
