Conflict resolution

Finding the way for two or more parties to find a peaceful solution to a disagreement among them

According to the report “Workplace Conflict and How Businesses Can Harness It to Thrive,”

• 85 percent of employees deal with conflict on some level
• 49 percent of conflict is a result of personality clashes and "warring egos"

The inability for managers to effectively manage conflict and bring about positive resolution is costing them nearly one full day of productivity per month.

You have probably in your organization, people who avoid addressing conflict. Also people who aggressively confront it. Neither approach is productive for moving a team forward. Conflict is inevitable when people come together to achieve a goal. We all must be prepared to effectively handle conflicts with others and ourselves and know how to resolve differences in a positive way. This workshop will help you understand the root of conflict, communicate without causing defensiveness, and de-escalate and resolve conflicts.
