Why Choose this course
Often overlooked inter-personal differences are a key driver to poor supply chain performance. This practical approach to conflict resolution will assist you in setting the pace and mode for a collaborative and constructive working environment.
The course initially expounds on the standard way of dealing with conflict and then moves on to new material dealing with ‘effective influence’ or becoming more effective at influencing others specifically when resolving conflict.
Not intended for individuals who already have extensive experience and knowledge in conflict resolution. It will benefit those who are held captive in their personal capacity or who facilitate leading and managerial roles.
