Description
Conflict can be an opportunity for growth. Conflict is the inevitable outcome of any healthy organization or relationship that is growing. It's what we do with conflict that's key. In order to maintain organizational or relationship trust, conflict must be dealt with appropriately versus avoided or allowed to fester. This class will actively involve participants and identify individual conflict management style.
