Managing and Resolving Conflict at Work

Private group training

When employees don’t have strong conflict resolution skills, what start out as merely uncomfortable or frustrating situations swell, causing stress, a breakdown of trust and teamwork, low job satisfaction, high absenteeism, and turnover — wasted time and resources. Help your workforce navigate every-day disagreements so they don’t grow into something bigger.
