Workplace conflict that should not be avoided

The possibility of conflicts is always given and is always present, but it depends on the individual how he reacts and / or resolves it in the given moment. Many immediately embark on conflict situations and try to clarify everything even freshly. What the solution and communication will be depends largely on the actors in the conflict. One party is in vain intelligent and realistic when the other party’s brain is overwhelmed with rage and unable to think and act properly. At the same time, there are those who try indefinitely to avoid all sorts of conflicts, but they can also speak with a sense of justice and facts that they want to clarify anyway, so they just go into the debate.

How to argue?

Passively: he avoids conflict and if he finds himself in such a situation, he enters into a subordinate relationship voluntarily. This is good as long as you belong to a person as an outsider, but if your own interests are harmed, it is already destructive.

Adapting: You can be compromising against the will of others and put your own aside, but in careless situations you can cut sharply, guiltily at the other.

Aggressive: you have thoughts, not one, and you want to enforce it anyway. Because your own interest is paramount, you may not always be able to work with others.

Problem solver: you don’t just want to validate your own thoughts, you also consider, listen to, and collaborate with others.

We also fall into one of these categories depending on what we saw and heard at home. Sometimes one style is purposeful and other times the other. However, one who always tries to avoid discussion does not mean that in the absence of a situation of conflict, his happiness would be complete. This will not solve the problem. If you’re lucky, the matter may be a bit smoother, your moods may calm down, but sometimes it’s just an occasional silence and it comes back later, getting stronger on the surface. That is why it is worth going beyond the debate when it comes to an important matter. The manners should not be offensive, hostile, and it would not hurt to put on paper everything we want to clarify with the discussion partner.

Honesty, fairness and openness can play a key role in a conflict situation. We must not focus only on our own thoughts. Let the other party also have a say and respond to it.

It is quite natural that we do not feel good in a conflict situation, but in the long run this is the only way to work and work properly. In a workplace, this is the factor that affects both the circle and the work.
