Conflict Management


Conflict is when two or more values, perspectives and opinions are contradictory in nature and haven't been aligned or agreed about yet. Conflict management refers to the long-term management of intractable conflict. It is the label for the variety of ways by which people handle grievances—standing up for what they consider to be right and against what they consider to be wrong.

Sources of Conflicts:
Here are some sources of Conflicts.
1) Scarce Resources.
2) Conflicts may also surface when job boundaries and task responsibilities are unclear.
3) Personality Clashes.
4) Power and Status Differences.
5) Goal Differences.
6) Communication Breakdown.
