Details

Conflict will happen in the workplace. We are individuals with unique ambitions and commitments, and when something we hold as important is threatened, we will take it personally. Conflict may be exciting and energising, but it affects productivity and morale. In this module, we will learn how to improve our conflict management skills and apply problem solving techniques.

Conflict often occurs spontaneously. In this module we explore models to respond rapidly as well as an introduction to principled negotiation as a tool to deal with conflict.

  • Define conflict
  • Select an approach/strategy to deal with conflict
  • Learn to develop rapport
  • Learn to develop empathy
  • Apply problem solving techniques to conflict

  • Explore bargaining positions
  • Learn the Principled Negotiation Model
  • Apply your insights in a world café format to sharpen your skills

We would want to discuss what your core needs are so that we cover those aspects. You need to have paid for 3 delegates at least.
