Effective Conflict Management
Keeping conflict productive is one of the key skills of effective
leaders. In this unique and interactive presentation, Michael
Dunphy will work with your group to engage a “Conflict Mapping
Tool” through interactive discussion and facilitation. On
a more personal level, each member will also complete and analyze
the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict modes tool. These brief and interesting
tools will be used to collect useful data to enable members to
create action plans for focused improvements in conflict minimization
and management in their corporate cultures.
Key Points to Be Covered:
“Good” conflict & “Bad” conflict
Internal vs. external conflict sources
The 5 Thomas-Kilmann conflict modes & what they mean
Evolving your “reflexive” conflict responses
Maximizing productive outcomes in conflict: tools of the trade
Rooted in modern psychology, biochemistry and timeless principles
from the martial sciences, this program contains information that
can substantially enhance effective and productive resolution
of conflict in the business setting while simultaneously helping
leaders minimize energy-draining and unproductive conflict. Dr.
Dunphy focuses the program to enable participants to create several
immediately applicable take-aways for personal or transferable
use.
Value to your group
The information and activities from this program will enable participants
to regularly and more clearly identify potential sources of unproductive
conflict in themselves, their employees and their policies. Each
member will have identified his/her reflexive conflict management
mode(s) and will have a much better understanding of how to be
more strategic in using all five TK modes in application. In addition,
the knowledge from this program will enable each member to serve
as a better conflict management role model for other company leaders,
resulting in better communication and a more harmonious work culture
with productive conflict being seen as “normal”.
