Managing conflict at work Training Course

Workplace Diversity

PsyAsia International
Training Provided by PsyAsia International Workplaces are full of conflict. Conflict occurs between team members, between those of different teams and departments, between management and lower level staff and between the front-line and the external environment - the client/ customer. This one-day event tackles conflict and provides attendees with a toolbox of skills for reducing, managing and negotiating conflict. The course has been designed to be applicable to any level of employee within an organization and, in fact, the more that different levels are represented, the more dynamic and interesting the explorations and discussions become. That said, we can customize the course as necessary to be more meaningful to a particular group. For example, previous clients have been interested in only training their executives. Armed with an understanding of what these people do via the initial organizational meeting, we can ensure that our facilitators cover the most pertinent and salient issues specific to any group. At the end of the course, delegates will have a fuller understanding of what conflict is, their conflict style and conflict management style as well as those of others. They will be able to effectively prepare for negotiation and use their communication skills to reduce conflict and misunderstanding in the workplace. The above is achieved by way of presentations, written exercises and practical small group exercises facilitated by experienced organizational psychologists.
