When working with others, conflict is inevitable; people have complex needs and exhibit complex behaviours which can be difficult to handle. This module will help you to approach conflict with the curiosity to explore and understand what it means and reframe it to become a positive experience that leads to greater understanding.

Description

Although conflict can sometimes result in creativity, it can also be very disruptive and must be managed effectively to reduce the negative fallout. This module will help participants to develop the skills necessary to navigate conflict without judgement and to understand when to empathise, explore, activate, navigate or innovate for a positive outcome.
