This week we are exploring the topic of Conflict, a significant topic for today’s workspace. In today’s post, I want to share the “Reconnecting the Workspace Tip” I provide at the end of Chapter 14, Conflict Management, of Reconnecting Workspaces. Here’s what I wrote on page 270 of the book.
“Conflict is a challenging topic in the virtual, remote, and hybrid world, given that there may be different preferences in terms of giving and receiving feedback. Additional challenges can be the sense of not knowing others well enough, or feeling like we don’t “see them in action.” Finally, in some workspaces, there may be a sense that there are no channels available in which to raise issues.
What is your common ground and commitment to addressing and resolving the conflict? This can include asking questions like:
• What’s your part of the equation?
• What’s important?
• What’s the connection to the bigger picture?
As you think about reconnecting the workspace, what is important to note about conflict?”
Enjoy the conversation,
Jennifer
