Do you spend too much time trying to resolve workplace conflict with limited success?
You’re not alone! Managers and HR practitioners often tell us they “wish they had seen it coming” or they “would have stepped in earlier if they knew what to do.”
On average, managers spend 25-40% of their time managing conflict (Washington Business Journal, May, 2005). How much time do HR managers spending resolving conflict?
Workplace conflict is estimated to cost the US economy $359 billion in paid hours (CPP, Inc. Global Human Capital Report, 2008). Even if you divide this by 14 to take into account the smaller Australian population, we still spend an estimated AUD$26 billion dollars on workplace conflict each year. Wow!
Most workplace conflicts can be resolved without the need for grievances, investigations, claims or professional help.
YOU CAN prevent much of the conflict in your workplace!
