I request that (Company) management staff attend the NY State Dispute Resolutions
(NYSDRA) Workplace Conflict Management Training as their schedules allow, or that
(Company) retains NYSDRA to bring this excellent training to (Company).
This training does not just teach conflict resolution and introductory mediation skills; this
training teaches the four distinct types of conflicts that affect workplace and what can be
done to prevent and effectively handle them, and also addresses common dysfunctional
beliefs about conflict in general.
The training also addresses constructive and destructive responses to workplace
conflict, as well as how the organizational power and roles of those involved in a conflict
have significant influence upon how the conflict will be handled, which is very significant
for managers and leaders to be aware of.
This training addresses group conflict, interpersonal conflict, the costs of unresolved
conflict, and successful options for conflict resolution. This training would serve to
prevent bullying, harassment, discrimination, retaliation, workplace violence, and
entrenched costly unresolved conflict that can easily spread from individuals to groups.
I believe this training would be enormously helpful to (Company)s staff among
managers, with managers and their staff, and that it could eventually be taught to all
staff.
I have attached a copy of the materials from my attendance at this training last week.
