Conflict Management
What is a conflict?
We talk about a conflict when one person’s interests, wishes, or objectives do not agree with those of another person or other people. Conflicts are part of our day-to-day life – and not just our professional life. They befall us wherever people meet each other and interact with each other.
The silver lining of conflict
Conflicts are in no way only negative – they also provide opportunities:- Opportunities for change.
- Opportunities for growth.
- Opportunities for personal development.
Conflicts are there to be resolved!
Unresolved conflicts are a drain on time, money and nerves. What happens when people are unable to resolve a conflict? Such a conflict can swell to unexpected proportions, not only compromising the mood within a team but also implying financial losses for the company and even injury to the health of those involved.
