Business
Conflicts exist in business, no doubt. Unfortunately, it is often ignored, disregarded, misdiagnosed, or overlooked costing a business time, money, employees, reputation, and production. Yet, most business leaders don’t know where to go for help. We understand conflict and connect people and companies to the tools and services needed to manage and resolve such conflicts and disputes. When managed well, conflict can lead to business success.
Common Business Obstacles
Staff turnover - For one reason or another you have a revolving door of staff members
Team dysfunction - Staff members argue and gossip
Unclear direction - Management, ownership, investor disputes
Department tension - Teams are not speaking with other teams
Customer service - Customers are not taken care of
Home life - Problems at home affect work
Disagreements and tension can be cumulative. One disagreement may be harmless, but how does another disagreement build upon the first? Once the snowball starts, it changes perceptions and attitudes, and it must be managed appropriately.
