Executive Summary
Conflict in the workplace is a fact of life and creating a work environment that enables people to succeed is imperative for any organization to achieve their goals. Because people have different goals and needs, so is each department of an organization. Conflict unfortunately is inevitable because individuals interpret and respond differently to situations. The dissimilarities in people is not a bad thing, however it’s the arrogances/attitudes that arise that may make a situation a negative one. In my work place I have been seeing a really bad connections between the departments that supposedly working together to bring better solutions to our students.
Having a competitive attitude in the workforce is a good characteristic; this is the attitude that drives some individuals to do good and bad thing between departments that causes major chaos in the work place. In a perfect world nobody ever wishes for prob¬lems at work. Our workplace would have been harmoni¬ous and peaceful, as everyone working to their full potential and feeling fulfilled in their careers. However, as with any circumstances that brings people together, problems can arise. These issues that have been arise at my work place started with the managers in charge of the departments.
Their personalities are so different;
