Webinar
Five Methods to Conflict Resolution
PRESENTED BY:
Daniel McCoy,
KSU Small Business Development Center
Conflict occurs in our workplace almost daily with clients, coworkers and other stakeholders. Often it is a simple answer to resolve the issue, but there are times when conflict can cause productivity to suffer, cause emotional stress, employees to leave or possibly worse. Conflict resolution is a way for two or more parties to find a peaceful solution to a disagreement among them. When a dispute arises, often the best course of action is negotiation to resolve the disagreement.
This webinar examines the tools you can use to understand conflict and improve as a Conflict Resolution Negotiator. Discussion includes five methods of dealing with conflict and the six steps to take in the conflict resolution process.
Cost: $10
Payment Policy: Payment must be made prior to the event date in order to hold your seat. Refunds are not offered. If you cancel 48 hours in advance, a credit for a future workshop will be issued.
