seminar half-day onsite / 2 x 75-minutes online
positively reducing conflict
Negative conflict within an organization creates morale problems, slowdowns in work, and employee dissatisfaction. Often, conflict arises as a result of differences in personalities and approaches to problem-solving.
Mutual understanding and empathy are absolutely key to effective relationships that yield outstanding organizational results in today’s demanding, fast-moving, and highly diverse workplace. In this practical seminar, participants gain understanding through the use of the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI)—perhaps the most robust self-assessment in the field. This tool helps people become more aware of their own personality traits and preferences and enables them to more easily understand those of their peers.
When participants in this seminar learn that their differences need not lead to conflict and that not all conflict is bad, the workplace yields greater creativity and collegiality. Past participants have told us that their relationships outside of work were also improved!
