How to Effectively Manage Conflict With Peers
About This Course
Conflict has permeated our culture and our workplaces. From national politics to courtrooms to media to work, people have learned to not be nice to each other. While bullying and misbehaviors are decried, very little is done to support a culture of civility and calm. The result is conflict, chaos, loss of productivity, low morale, and costly turnovers. This topic helps leaders, supervisors and managers understand the causes of peer conflict and provide actionable ideas to de-escalate conflict in teams and workplaces.
