Say Better: How to Disagree Online

The social psychology behind why everybody’s shouting in social media, and what we need to do about it.

Unless you've been digitally detoxing in a cave for the last 10 years, you'll have noticed the world become more polarised, especially in social media. What used to be the realm of harmless memes has now become a battleground, and everyone's invited. Social platforms can be the source of great conversations, but when things turn nasty they can also be terrible for our mental health. This webinar with social psychologist and Good Shout CEO Amy Kean explores where our manners went, and how we can talk to each other better online. In 90 thoroughl respectful minutes, we'll cover:

  • The psychology of why we argue online, and what we get out of it

  • How to deal with trolls, devil's advocates and well-meaning splainers

  • A new strategy for how we can start talking to each other better in social media, and a vision for what might happen if we do
