Can your staff deal with conflict well?

Conflict: it’s all around us. Whether it’s colleagues in direct and heated disagreement,  staff and management having challenging encounters, navigating relationships with contractors, clients or personal connections, it’s going to crop up in your workplace from time to time.

Yet, for many of us, facing conflict is terrifying – we do everything to avoid dealing with it! And when we don’t address conflict early it can rapidly escalate into a bigger issue, making us even more reluctant to tackle it.

But conflict can be the engine room for powerful learning, and working through it constructively can often brings about transformational change.

Why our training for your staff?

We provide participants with the capacity to identify and face conflict, along with the confidence and skills for dealing with it wisely and well. Rather than applying a formulaic approach that many other training providers focus on, our course assists staff with their emotional resilience, with a broad range of applications.

This means that as well as increasing staff members’ awareness and skills in conflict resolution, we also develop their understanding of and ability in leadership, collaboration, communication and team development.
