Resolve conflicts in your life

Author: Dale Carnegie

Most of us consider conflict to be an unfavorable experience we face in our professional lives. Accordingly, we do not tend to view conflict as an opportunity, but rather as an obstacle to opportunities.
It is likely that what reinforces these views is the fact that organizations do not provide the necessary tools for the effective use of conflict in a positive way; they do not support a culture where conflict creates an opportunity for personal and organizational growth.
In this chapter, we will discuss ways in which we can improve our workplace and grow our businesses through our involvement in conflicting situations. We will first look at the various negative effects that conflicts can have at work. We will then learn how conflicts can serve as opportunities to enhance and develop our organization's business.
