Conflict resolution is a key component of success in any work environment. It is a natural by-product of people having different needs, interests, ideas and goals. No matter what your job, you will face conflicts both large and small, and the ability to recognize and deal with conflict is a core skill necessary to thrive. In this program we will cover causes of conflict within an organization, techniques to manage those conflicts and the benefits to resolving conflict quickly and thoroughly.

You may wonder why we discuss different generations in the workplace. Many conflicts arise from two people seeing the same situation through different lenses. Each of the four current generations in our workplace have different general characteristics, communication styles, and needs. Understanding each generation can help any employee better navigate workplace relationships and interactions. In this workshop, we will discuss the generational characteristics as well as how each prefers to work and communicate to bridge the gap between the generational divides.

Time: 12:00pm- 2:00pm (unless listed otherwise)
