Introduction

Welcome to "How to Manage Conflicts". There is one thing that you can be sure of, people have a wide diversity in opinions, interests, thought processes, and often they simply are not willing to find a middle ground. However, the best thing we can do when faced with conflict is to try to find a solution. Disagreements and conflict only lead to further negative things when a solution is not found. It additionally increases the tensions for those around the conflict, even when they are not directly involved. Of course, the best thing is to work to avoid conflict in the first place.

Chances are you want to learn more about managing conflict because you either find yourself constantly fighting with someone, or you want to help resolve situations faster with others.

One of the best things you can do is to address issues before they erupt into big fights. Conflict management has its role everywhere we go, like in the office and our personal lives. When we fight with others or others are fighting around us, it makes everyone's life miserable.

When you think about your work environment, there isn’t a single organization that simply runs for charity; all organizations have to bring in funds to survive. This means they need their employees to be the most productive they can be. One sure thing that is a productivity leach is a conflict. When employees are constantly criticizing or arguing, they are not as productive, which is why conflict management is an important part of the work environment. Leaders and managers play an important role as a responsible party for deescalating conflict and getting their teams back on track.

When an employee is focused on the conflict, they are demotivated, this interferes with their performance and productivity. As well this negative feeling spills over into the rest of the organization. Before long, employees are wasting more time fighting with each other than accomplishing the tasks they need to. As well others are more likely to feel disgruntled about even coming into work. As a leader, you want your employees or teams to enjoy coming to work; this is when you get them to perform their best, which makes it essential to resolve conflicts as quickly as possible.

The ability to manage conflicts can go a long way in strengthening the relationship between you and employees. When you build a better relationship with your employees, and they know that you are fair and will listen to their needs and pain points. This makes them more likely to feel motivated and accept new challenges. One way effective conflict managers prevent conflict is to prepare or acknowledge issues or changes before they occur. This allows the team or employee not to be blindsided by change. They are able to accept adjust and process the change without feeling left out or ignored. When your employees or team feel valued, this goes a very long way for helping you to manage future conflicts. As a leader, one of the best things we can do is avoid conflict by dissolving it before it becomes a situation. Regardless of what some may think, no one wants to carry around tension or stress from arguments with their colleagues.

Conflicts are not limited to our experiences at work, and they also occur in our personal lives. Part of being in a relationship means that there will be times when you do not get along. That you and a friend will disagree, or you and your spouse will have an argument. However, it is best to work to avoid conflict at home just as you would at work.

When you argue at home, it creates a spread of negativity, and often stims from one individual disrespecting the other. Rather than grow your list of enemies, it is more gratifying to find a compromise or manage the issue between the two parties. It is never helpful to play the blame game, simply making the other person feel bad will not solve the issue or conflict. It actually just makes the situation more stressful and miserable.

With using conflict management, you are able to find a middle ground or alternative to the conflict or issue. Remember, there are often two sides to every problem, and they should be addressed as so. This is because there are always two different perspectives on the issue. Using skills in conflict management, you can better understand the different perspectives and work to find a reasonable solution to the problem.

Over the next sections, you will learn about the seven steps to conflict management and how to improve the conflicts in your life. As you grow your understanding, allow yourself to be open to where the middle ground is. In most conflicts finding the middle ground is a way to compromise and deescalate the situation.

Chapter 1 - Step 1: Be Respectful to all Parties Involved

Before we can really begin to understand how to manage conflict, we need to define what conflict is. Most conflicts can be defined as a struggle between different opinions, interests, views, or needs. Conflict can occur between groups or individuals. It is where one side of the view or idea cling to their position and is unable to see the opposition's view or perspective. Conflict is one of the great dividers between people. It creates polarization between the sides, eventually forcing hard lines, which distances the two sides. As well it can bread negativity, anger, and hostility.

However, one can also argue that conflict is not always a bad or destructive thing. When you can properly manage conflict, positive
