Workshop 1: Introduction to conflict management: Developing conflict competency

Conflict in the workplace is a necessary part of professional life. However, it’s often not the issues in dispute that cause difficulty in the workplace, but our response to conflict that leads to negative outcomes.

This one-day workshop is an introduction to conflict management designed to provide participants with the essential skills to become conflict competent. The workshop equips participants with knowledge and understanding of the causes, sources, and types of conflict, how conflict impacts us, and the range of responses people have to conflict. This workshop also provides participants with a thorough understanding and breakdown of each stage of the conflict cycle, enabling them to analyse and breakdown future conflicts in a neutral way that is pragmatic rather than emotive.

By becoming conflict literate, participants will be able to acknowledge, identify, analyse and respond to conflict in a way that is productive and solution-focussed. The skills gained and practised in the workshop are not only applicable to the workplace, but many other areas of life involving interactions with others.
