Wherever you find people at home or at the office, you'll find conflict. People disagree about things, it's a fact of life, and it doesn't have to be a problem. In a workplace, conflicts that are handled appropriately can be a source of innovation and positive change, both for employees and the companies they work for. But when conflicts go unresolved, they can raise stress levels, interfere with business, and even lead to physical violence. To prevent this, human resource professionals have developed an effective conflict resolution process that employers can use to help find lasting solutions to disagreements on the job. In this program, we'll discuss different types of conflict you may encounter in the office. The practices you should follow to resolve conflict and what to do if conflict threatens to get out of control.
