Understanding the cause of a conflict is the first step in resolving it. Most conflict stems from three sources: Control, Blame and Passion.
CONTROL: When contributors feel a lack control within their job or feel controlled by others at work, brain functioning decreases, thereby lowering productivity.
BLAME: Within conflict is blame, whether overt or covert. Resolving conflict takes personal responsibility and compromise.
PASSION: Conflict stems from passionate, competing ideas. The key is turning passion-driven conflict into innovation.
At UpThink, we believe that all conflict can be resolved AND used for a greater purpose.
