Workshop I Conflicts in the Workplace – opportunity, not threat
Description
Conflict is a natural and normal part of any workplace. Where people interact on a daily basis, interests, various personalities and ideas collide. Conflict isn’t necessarily something negative. When effectively handled, it can help you to grow on a personal and professional level.
