Conflict happens. It's not a question of whether conflicts between people will arise, it's a question of how those involved will deal with them--and the role you play in the resolution. Since fist fights, poking fun and running away tend to escalate problems instead of solve them, a more constructive approach is needed.
Ideally, employees manage their own interpersonal conflicts, sometimes after a little preparatory coaching from you. Frequently, however, you're called in as a third party by the feuding employees to facilitate. You'll be better able to help them work things out with the tips and tools you'll gain in this seminar.
Learn practical, easy-to-use skills for facilitating and resolving interpersonal conflict, and leave with a six-step model to follow to stay assertive in the middle of high emotion.
