Details
Conflict will happen in the workplace. We are individuals with unique ambitions and commitments, and when something we hold as important is threatened, we will take it personally. Conflict may be exciting and energising, but it affects productivity and morale. In this module, we will learn how to improve our conflict management skills and apply problem solving techniques.
Conflict often occurs spontaneously. In this module we explore models to respond rapidly as well as an introduction to principled negotiation as a tool to deal with conflict.

Should you need this course urgently, the following options are available:
- Pay for 6 delegates (whether you have them or not) and we will schedule the course as soon as possible.
- If you have fewer delegates and cannot pay for 6, we can negotiate a shortened course where some of the time will be spent in blended learning - watching videos and doing tutorials and exercises with some contact time with the trainer. We would want to discuss what your core needs are so that we cover those aspects. You need to have paid for 3 delegates at least.
