Conflict Management in the Workplace - A 5 Day Course co-sponsored by York University and the WFI

The top-down management of conflict in the workplace can be frustrating for everyone. Typically, conflict is addressed after things have gotten out of hand and the conflict is entrenched in the workplace. Your best employees have left and those embattled have dug in. Unresolved disputes weigh down your workplace’s productivity and the cost of conflict mounts. Individuals suffer but the biggest loser is the workplace itself.

The solution is to deal with workplace conflict before it escalates. Everyone in the workplace can be agents of conflict resolution with the right tool kit. This course, offered to individuals and to groups, is a guide to more efficiency in the workplace because conflict takes time but unresolved conflict takes more.

In the workplace, the broadest range of conflicts arises. There are daily interpersonal conflicts; important issues of workplace regulation, efficiency, productivity and safety; and issues of human rights. In this course, participants will explore the maze of statutes, rules, laws and conventions that offer conflict management options. Students will analyze the different models of dispute resolution and practice using various models and innovative methods to solve different kinds of problems. course description >>

It is certainly very laudable that you chose to teach people about those kinds of matters in the office. Some people need it more than others, but at the very least, what they can do is to accommodate relevant discourse and perhaps guide them through it. Thanks for sharing that! All the best to you!
