Steem4nigeria Accelerator contest week 82: Conflict and Resolution

Hello everyone On this occasion I would like to participate in a contest held by @steem4nigeria about the Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest week 82: Conflict and Resolution
Here is my previous entry I would like to invite my friends @preshy001, @khokonmia, and @nemerem01 to participate in this contest

Workplace Conflict Resolution

In the workplace, conflict between co-workers, between the staff and their superiors or even from customers arises. Following are the ways to resolve that:

Good communication: Listen well and express opinion freely to the other party without always attacking it.

Mediation: In case the conflict stands tough for resolution, Mediator as a Manager or HRD helps to arrive at an amicable solution for both of them.

Focus on the Solution Rather than Blame: Talking over constructive solutions that are acceptable to both will have a higher chance of success than simply blaming each other.

Explicit Rules: Clearly laying out the rules or policies in the organization can stop the same conflict from happening again.

Conflict Management within the Home

Familial conflict usually happens because of different beliefs, opinionsand manners when communicating with one another. We can evade it like the following :

Empathy Listening: Instead of reacting before sensing what your family members feel, and by listening first you have more chance to reduce the pressure.

Keep it Calm & Polite — Don’t get loud or raise your voice or the words that can hurt your family member.

Talking Find the solution together : often discussing more effectively than fighting for both ego.

Recognize and honor diversity: Different family member of course has various opinions and the ability to accept these differences can reduce several arguments around both sides.

Conflict in Friendships

Friends can butt heads over misunderstandings, lack of compatible interests or communication mistakes. Ways to get around these are:

Direct Speech: Preventing deeper misunderstanding by confronting the problem head on instead of allowing for back talk.

Sometimes it is Better to Yield: There are times when giving in on little things is more beneficial than fighting ego and an enemy for you.

Time-Out to De-Escalate: It you are dealing with a hot-head situation time out for both sides helps mitigate hurtful words.

Be Sorry and then Forgive: If one person has screwed up, admitting the mistake and apologizing will help get you out of that mess.

Some personal experiences on dealing with Conflict

I once had an argument with my friend because I thought she broke her word to me, but however he told me that am wrong he did not tell ie did not manange too This initially made me upset as I was in a space of not communicating hence then I began to realise that communication solves this issue.

We got around to talking out loud for the first time. We heard him out and I listened to his reasoning, he heard what I felt. We also agreed to be more precise, that when we make promised, that we will be more effecient at communicating with one another at the time we promise. We should instead resolve this big conflict to the extent that it no longer threatens our relationship.

On the other hand, conflict is inevitable in everyday life we can choose what we do about it which either wastes or builds a bridge between people.
