Some organizations handle it well, and in fact encourage it in order to enhance the scope of alternative solutions to problems. What separates functional organizations from dysfunctional ones is how they handle this conflict. Topics covered in this presentation include: sources of conflict, effects on your business (positive and negative), role of conflict in creativity, and anger. Several tools to aid in resolving conflict are introduced, including the Drama Triangle, Mirroring Dialog, and Thomas-Kilman Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI).
