Overview
Unresolved conflict between employees in the workplace is stressful if not dealt with effectively and can result in serious outcomes for an organization. This includes: employee disengagement, employee job resignations, staff aggression and even violence. That’s why it’s important to have a clear plan plus directions for dealing with disputes.
