Conflict Competent Teams: Navigating Teams Through Turbulent Times
Description
Conflict in teams can be like a sudden storm - unpredictable, unavoidable, but ultimately necessary for growth. If we are unprepared, we might find ourselves caught in its destructive wake. But with the right tools, it's possible to turn them into constructive opportunities for growth.
In this session, we will explore conflict's multifaceted nature. We'll learn to recognize when conflict escalates and becomes destructive. We'll also explore proactive strategies that can prevent these destructive conflicts before they begin.
I'll introduce you to a practical 8-stage framework, adapted from scientific research, specifically designed to guide Agile teams through conflict. The framework empowers your team with the tools needed for overcoming conflict and building team resilience.
You will leave with a renewed perspective and a comprehensive toolkit, ready to cultivate not just a conflict-resilient team but a conflict-competent one. Transform the way your team encounters and navigates the storms of conflict, turning turbulent times into periods of growth and innovation.
