Workplace Conflict Resolution Workshop

Workplace conflict can be defined as any situation where multiple parties have opposing needs. It may range from everyday issues between people who have good relations to more serious situations involving significant interpersonal tension. Regardless of the conflict, a skilled communicator will seek to resolve it in a way that maximizes both the substantive outcome and the relationship.

Fortunately, conflict resolution skills can be readily learned, and the tools can be used effectively even when the other party lacks specific conflict resolution skills.

Join us for a workshop on Workplace Conflict Resolution facilitated by Kwela Leadership. Topics covered will include conflict modes, foundational skills, and conflict conversations. This will be a two-hour hands-on workshop with some informal time for networking.

This program focuses intensively on skills practice so that participants build a high level of confidence in the tools they learn before leaving the room.

Lastly, please arrive promptly, as the session will start at 6:00PM sharp. We want to ensure that everyone gets the most out of the session and has a great time.
