Dealing with Conflict
Recognising and understanding the cause or causes of difficult behaviour is vital in the creation of a working environment where everyone is treated equally and afforded the same opportunities. Outside of the workplace we will meet many people and some from time to time will display behaviour that we find challenging.
Conflict is a natural and powerful phenomenon that contributes significantly to the quality of life and work. Positive conflict can provide organisations with opportunities. They can benefit from the diversity of their employees and gain fulfilling working relationships that will lead to better work outcomes and innovation. On the other hand, conflict can be destructive, destroying morale, reducing performance and directly affecting employee welfare and organisational success. The understanding and skill required to successfully handle conflict and resolve disputes, will lead to improved employee relationships, enhanced productivity and decreased levels of absenteeism.
“Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent” Eleanor Roosevelt.
