Conflict Management

Managing Conflict In the Workplace

With different personalities, goals and working styles, workplace disagreements are inevitable. Without the confidence and skills to manage conflict, professionals tend to avoid conflict, hoping that it will work itself out, while inadvertently allowing it to fester and escalate into a significant drain on organizational resources. When handled properly, however, conflict can lead to innovative solutions and more cohesive relationships in the workplace. Learn in three simple and effective steps a structured approach to conflict resolution. The steps lead people to understand themselves and one another, then to discuss their shared reality, and finally take active steps to create their ideal reality. Non-flicked is more than conflict resolution, it is a new way to guide you to strengthen and build your relationships at work and at home.

Resolving conflict doesn’t happen through blame and shame, but rather understand each other’s differences through self-awareness and emotional intelligence.
