Effective Team Conflict Resolution : Key Tips for Dealing With Workplace Conflict
Behaviors like gossip, stonewalling, belittling, passive aggressiveness, finger-pointing, and hypercriticism are causing unhealthy, unhappy, and unproductive work environments and proving costly to organizations. According to CPP, Inc., conflicts in the workplace cost American businesses billions of dollars. For example, one increased expense is paid leave.

Doing the math, for a 40-hour-a-week schedule, that is 43-69 hours per month. Wow!
Conflict comes in many shapes and sizes. It can be between you and another, between two of your employees or co-workers, or even involving customers and outside individuals. You will benefit by gaining a general knowledge of hot to spot conflict brewing, how to best nip it in the bud, and what to do if it gets out of hand.
