Overview: Workplace conflict is both common and inevitable. Why? Because every day we can expect to interact, in numerous situations, with people who have different values, behavioural needs and expectations - yet we are all expected to work together harmoniously. These differences can strain relationships, obstruct cooperation and lead to displaced feelings. Workplace conflict can interfere with task or goal achievement, lower morale and create tension. And, failure to resolve conflict can sap and divert our creative and productive energies. Conflict between parties can occur for any number of underlying reasons. These can include differing perceptions; communication problems; differing views over content of the issue; differing moral, social or religious values; differing goals; pressure of responsibilities; status differences or power play; emotional issues.
