Conflict Resolution (edX)

It is no secret that conflict is a part of life and definitely a part of day-to-day business. Conflicts arise due to differences in personality or values. Conflict can be healthy. It is a perfectly normal and natural phenomenon of the human condition. Avoiding conflict can be termed as next to impossible. Therefore, learning how to handle conflict is central to build and maintain all relationships.
