Interpersonal disputes, fall-outs within teams, and everyday personality clashes can all too quickly become highly costly and distracting.
In Conflict Coaching, individuals do not just learn how to handle their own reactions in conflict situations with others, but also how to better manage conflict occurring within their teams or between colleagues.
Conflict Coaching offers a form of one-to-one intervention that can:
provide an alternative to mediation, for those who may find it too confrontational to address a dispute
help managers, supervisors and others to improve their interactions during conflict
help individuals to recognise behaviours that cause a pattern of conflict with others
support individuals who are undertaking training in conflict management
prepare people to get the maximum benefit from the process if they do choose to engage in mediation
following mediation, help individuals to manage ongoing difficult interactions
And benefits include:
Working relationships are preserved, improved, and future-proofed
Costly and time-consuming formal action is avoided
Staff can be retained and training needs are identified
The employer conforms to legislation and best practice
