Conflict in an organization is inevitable. If not addressed and managed, conflict can cause significant damage to individuals, teams, and an organization. In this course, managers will learn a simple, direct way to understand the different fears that drive much of the conflict and resistance they see.

Topics include:

  • Understand the impact that their conflict style has on other people
  • Recognize how employees handle conflict differently than they do
  • Be aware of fears and goals of their employees
  • Identify and reduce the opposition and resistance of their employees
  • Explore ways to improve their communication
