Overview

Conflict is a product of our uniqueness as people & so is inevitable - its absence would be abnormal. And the workplace provides a rich environment for various causes & types of conflict.

Some kinds of conflict contribute to the health & well-being of an organization by generating new perspectives - while other types are detrimental hijacking time, energy & trust.

Interpersonal conflict occurs when two or more persons seek to possess the same object, resource, or position – or they maintain incompatible goals, values, or motives. And interpersonal conflict can be caused by differences in information, perceptions, roles, priorities, or relationships.

There are a variety of direct costs to the organization associated with poorly managed conflict, including, in the worst cases, the loss of customers and good employees.
