Course Description

Because projects bring so many people together to work collaboratively, it's inevitable—conflict will happen at some point. But a properly structured conflict resolution process will not only address problems in a timely manner, it may actually spark creativity and innovation as a team finds a new pathway to complete its work.

This self-paced, fully online course will help project leaders recognize potential workplace conflicts early and intervene at the appropriate point so they can minimize disruptions. It introduces a robust infrastructure that can prevent stalemates and resentment from interfering with the team's cohesion and solidarity. And it helps guide team members through forms of self-management so they can begin to correctly organize and settle disputes on their own.
