Managing Conflict – Wednesday 28th November

None of us like to admit there are simmerings of conflict where we work,but at some point, if we haven’t already, we will be faced with a conflict situation. Knowing what it is and how to deal with it is key to ensuring it doesn’t escalate. In this informative and interactive workshop, we will take you on a practical tour of Managing Conflict, covering the 3 R’s – Recognising, Responding and Resolving. We will not only explore conflict in the workplace, but give you practical tips on handling those difficult conversations and an insight into the role of mediation.
