Course Description
The potential for conflict exists across all organizations. There may be differing opinions about how to run a project, which employee should be promoted, or whether an investment should be made. If not handled properly, these conflicts can stop all productive work within a business. There are also significant costs in the form of employee turnover, lost customers, legal fees, and damage to an organization’s reputation. Conflict Management discusses the various causes of conflict, the ramifications of not dealing with it in a timely manner, and the various techniques for managing it, including how to resolve specific conflict situations and the use of dispute resolution systems.
