If they confront the person directly, they may be misunderstood and pay a high price. So the tendency is to avoid i:he situation or to su,ffer in silence. The result is low morale or a desire to "get even." This course "(ill provide a road map and skills to help employees resolve conflicts and help reduce workplace tensions. It is intended for those who have not had previous training in conflict resolution at the Justice Institute.

Knowing when, why and how to use this tool is crucial to deal effectively with some of the most difficult and perplexing situations in mediations.

People in conflict often use their personal power and influence to minimize their losses or to prevent others from gaining what they want.
