Statistics reflect that about 50% of employee turnover results from unresolved workplace conflict.  Unresolved workplace conflict wastes employee and management time, impedes productivity and team work, and can lead to expensive lawsuits.  In contrast, effectively handled workplace conflict can foster the honest communication and creativity that helps an organization grow, and can significantly decrease litigation costs. 

Goals of the training are to help Managers and Human Resources Professionals to:

  • Learn skills and techniques to effectively resolve workplace conflicts
  • Elicit the hidden interests and needs that underlie a dispute
  • Help employees depersonalize the conflict and move beyond the angers and misunderstandings of the past
  • Lead employees to work together in problem solving
  • Assist disputants in agreeing on specific measures that will allow them to work harmoniously together in the future
  • Foster effective employee communication  
You will hear how these conflict resolution techniques have been applied to specific workplace disputes, and get the chance to use these skills yourself in interactive role plays.  You will also receive written materials to keep as a reference.
