7 strategies to reduce
workplace conflict through
employee engagement….
Actions to apply……because we have seen
them work in the real business world!
HRPA  Hamilton - 7 Strategies to Reduce Workplace Conflict Through Employee Engagement - 2014
Our goal for tonight ….
To address the root cause of
conflict in business settings, and
share some proven tools and
learnings to help you with you
team
A proactive approach
Top 7 business lessons we have learned:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

Dealing with and handling change
Clear expectations
90 day plans
Accountability
Recognition
Practice of Giving an ‘A’
Coaching, leadership, management
and a couple more….
“You can not solve a problem
with the same mind that
created it.”
- Albert Einstein
“There is no conflict in reality,
check your premises.”
- Ayn Rand
"There is no more destructive force
in human affairs - not greed, not
hatred - than the desire to have
been right. Non-attachment to
possessions is trivial when
compared with non-attachment to
opinions."
- Mark Kleiman
Issue of generation gaps in business
The 4 generations:
Traditionalists:
Baby Boomers:
Generation X:
The Millennials:

before 1945
1946 – 1964
1965 – 1980
1981 – 2000 (aka Generation Y)
Open dialogue….
How do you see the different
generations effecting you or your
organization?

Is there any advice you can share?
One:
Dealing with and
handling change…
"Consider how hard it is to
change yourself and you'll
understand what little
chance you have of
changing others."
- Jacob M. Braude
“If you don’t like change, you
will like irrelevancy even
less!”
- Tom Peters
To drive change, 3 key elements
MUST be in place:
1. A clear VISION
2. An engaged TEAM
3. A sense of URGENCY
If any of these are
missing, conflict will exist
Two:
Clear expectations….
Open dialogue….
How do you currently get people to
set clear goals and expectations in
your organization?

What do you see happening when
expectations are not clear?
Three:
90 day plans….
Invite people into
the strategy….

Everyone has
fingerprints!
Everyone has a sense of
urgency to hit stretch goals
Four:
Accountability….
Accountability partners:
Five:
Recognition….
Six:
Practice of Giving an ‘A’….

Source: ‘The Art of Possibility’, Ben and Rosamund Zander
Seven:

performance appraisal?
