Conflict Resolution

Abstract

Conflict is a stubborn fact of organizational life. Regrettably, it is an inevitable when organizations incorporate individuals with such diverse scopes of life. As conflict is identified in organizational work teams, an analytical approach to conceptualizing conflict is the first step. Further development will then focus on the different sources of conflict and how it can compromise the common goal of the team if it is not handled correctly. Searching for ways in which to manage conflict and avoid conflicts in work teams will bring together the underlying focus of this paper.

A fully empowered mature self-directed work team will describe its own jobs, set its own standards, give feedback to members about work performance and team skills, appraise its own performance, and identify and support the training and development needs of its members. The team group will provide guidelines and a framework for that performance management, but within that framework, the team is responsible and accountable for its own performance
