As a CEO, business manager, or other organizational leader, do you know how to resolve conflict in the workplace? Many organizational leaders struggle to manage interpersonal conflict among employees. The first step is understanding the causes of the tensions. The four most common sources are:
(1) Interpersonal Style Differences, which occur in all relationships and can usually be easily assessed and addressed through coaching.
(2) Legacy Events and Relational Injuries, which occur when feelings are hurt due to interactions where individuals feel disregarded, leading to decreased trust and teammwork. These issues are more difficult to address and often require intervention from skilled coaches/counselors.
(3) Organizational Culture Challenges, which occur when there is a lack of clarity and alignment around the Core Values of the organization, often leading to an "accidental culture." These issues often require a needs assessment to illuminate cultural concerns and thoughtful intervention to right the ship.
(4) Leadership Challenges, which occur when leaders and/or managers are not approaching their roles with intentionality and psychological balance. These issues are often best addressed through executive coaching. Visit RJCG.ORG for more informtion about these four sources of conflict and the rememdies. #workplaceconflict #organizationalhealth
