Faculty workshop: Productive Conflict

January 17, 2020  //  FOUND IN: Updates & Resources

Everything DiSC® Productive Conflict helps participants improve self-awareness around conflict behaviors.

Rather than focus on a step-by-step process for conflict resolution, Everything DiSC® Productive Conflict provides participants with techniques to curb destructive behaviors and effectively respond to conflict situations.

The program features an exploration of DiSC® in a conflict context, provides an opportunity for participants to explore their destructive conflict responses and offers them a method for making more productive choices in their response to conflict.

Participant takeaways

  • Appreciate how their style of handling conflict affects the people around them
  • Learn how to “catch” themselves when going down a destructive conflict path
  • Learn how to reframe a conflict situation and choose more productive behaviors
  • Build a common language in the organization around appropriate conflict behavior

Date: Thursday, Feb. 27

Time: Noon – 4 p.m. (Lunch provided)

Location: BSRB Seminar Rooms, first floor
