How can you develop a shared understanding of conflicts within your team?
Conflict can be leveraged to enhance creativity if managed well. Many view conduct negatively, but differing views on teams contribute to new paths forward. Understanding each team member’s strength, weaknesses and way of thinking is essential. Conflict arises most frequently when people do not feel heard. Creating a platform that encourages a healthy environment to discuss opinions in a respectful way is key. Our job as leaders is not to sweep conflict under the rug, but to create the environment where a free exchange of ideas can occur, while not tolerating conflict that becomes personal. Coaching our teams to express differing opinions and ideas respectfully while creating a culture to do so should be high on the list.
