Thursday 15 February 2024

3.00pm AEDT

PLATFORM: GO TO WEBINAR

TARGET GROUP

Manager and Team Leaders

SUMMARY

Conflict is termed as a disagreement between at least 2 parties. A usual conflict is when one Party (Party A) is trying to get the other Party (Party B) to see their point of view (their personal belief) while Party B is trying to convince Party A of their opinion… this form of conflict often leads to both sides feeling frustrated and not feeling heard or validated.

This one-hour long webinar explains different types of conflict that can occur in both work and at home and explores practical tools to minimise the escalation when clashing occurs.

 

Management can use these skills in their work with heightened clients and to help staff they supervise to feel validated and heard and move forward with resolution.
