Course description
Conflict: Obstacle or Opportunity
Conflict has been described as a dangerous opportunity. When people resolve conflicts quickly and respectfully with a positive attitude, they become better working partners and increase their productivity. On the flip side, unresolved conflict impedes progress, creates unproductive tension and wastes large amounts of emotional energy. Conflict can drive creative process, improve collaborative partnerships, and delivers better results. But it can also threaten professional reputations, destroy trust, and hinder alignment and execution. We all have a stake in resolving conflicts in ways that preserve both the quality of our work, and the strength of our working relationships.
The key to effectively resolving conflict is to understand the choices we make around conflict. Too often we use strategies that lead to either dysfunctional harmony or mean-spirited attacks. This webinar is designed to engage participants in an exploration of the tools and strategies that enable us to overcome the obstacles and focus on the opportunities of conflict.
