This is a two-day course.

In this course, you’ll focus on basic conflict management skills. You’ll look at effective communication as a strategy for preventing negative conflicts and how prevention strategies can be used to address a conflict before it gets destructive. You’ll assess your own conflict management styles (strengths and challenges) and learn the range of options available to you in managing your own conflicts when they arise.

Note: While this course will provide tools for conflict management, we will not be focused on your individual conflict scenario during the course.
