Conflict Resolution
By Daniel Dana
P 750.00

Conflict Resolution is the first book to provide specific mediation skills and managerial tools for successfully preventing, managing and resolving workplace conflicts. Before minor skirmishes become full-blown wars, refer to this hands-on, solution-oriented book to learn :

* The four primary tasks of preventive mediation - with two important tools to help you perform those tasks.
* Practical tools for mediating conflicts between others - as well as resolving conflicts between yourself and another.
* Proactive techniques to frame conflicts as both-gain opportunities - instead of win-lose or lose-lose contacts.
