Learn about the various types and costs of organizational conflict and how prevention, intervention, and mediation can be applied in your organizational culture. We will explore best methods to deliver effective communication in difficult circumstances and discover ways to strategically coordinate with top management through these processes. In addition, you will learn how to avoid common pitfalls that can affect your organization’s bottom line. An interactive Q&A period will conclude the training.
