Gain conflict resolution techniques that you can apply in your daily life

Unhealthy and poorly managed conflict can have a negative impact on individuals and groups. However, mastering essential conflict resolution skills can reduce the occurrence of negative conflicts, creating healthier and happier relationships and work environments. By learning and using simple conflict resolution techniques, many conflicts can be prevented from spiraling out of control. This webinar will explore the various dynamics of conflict, including its sources and how it often escalates in predictable patterns. 

This webinar will be facilitated by Christina Reimer.
