Conflicts are viewed as personal failures; structures, systems and strategies are left unexamined in spite of their contribution to the continuation of the conflict; and the human beings who work in the organization increasingly suffer from loss of communication, partnership, trust and morale. Few organizations have conducted "conflict audits" to discover where these streams of conflict come from, or designed multi-layered complex systems to improve their capacity for conflict prevention, management, settlement and resolution. Instead, this workshop will identify the social psychology of workplace conflict and the need for solutions that reconsider the way we work, and ways of using conflicts as opportunities for personal and organization learning, growth, change, healing, and transformation.
