Overview

In an ideal world, you'd always get along with everyone. Decisions would be easy and unanimous. Everyone would be on the same page and the daily stressors of work would bring people together rather than pull them apart. 

But the reality is disagreements and conflict are sometimes inevitable. Different personalities, opinions or values clash, misunderstandings happen and feelings get hurt.

Find out what you can do to ensure you and your team-mates can work through conflict constructively and respectfully.
