AgWorks: Managing Conflict

ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR

Conflict is an inevitable part of working with others, but how it is managed can make the difference between positive growth and negative outcomes for a business. This webinar will help you recognize the sources of conflict and develop strategies for handling them more effectively. An optional second hour offers a deeper dive into personal conflict styles, inter-generational differences, and strategies for working with difficult personalities. Participants will also gain hands-on practice in response techniques, including building trust and using I-messages, to strengthen their ability to turn conflict into an opportunity for collaboration.
