CONFLICT MANAGEMENT

We have all experienced conflict in some form and in a range of situations. Conflict can affect our business relationships; our workplace relations, our personal and social relationships and our sense of enjoyment and productivity. Conflict can be both a negative force and a positive aspect in our lives and work.

Conflict cannot be eliminated from our lives but we can learn how to manage it constructively and make it productive.  It can be an opportunity to learn, grow and bring about positive change.

GPD offers courses and workshops designed to assist people in their daily lives or in their work environments to attain the knowledge, skills, competencies and character traits to be able to manage conflict more effectively.
