Webinar Overview:

Collaboration among co-workers to meet the organization’s goals has never been more important. Organizations are expecting employees at all levels to work together -- often across functions -- to solve problems and make decisions that were once the exclusive responsibility of management. This new way of working also creates new opportunities for conflict making. Resolving conflict is a necessary skill for all workers. This two-part course provides you with the skills to turn conflict into opportunities to achieve positive results. You will explore your past experiences and habits in dealing with conflicts, learn new ways of thinking about conflict, understand choices you have in conflict, as well as analyzing your individual level of emotional intelligence. You will leave with tips and techniques to keep your emotions in check, to help others go from unreasonable to reasonable, and to have difficult but necessary conversations.
