1 Day Conflict Management Course

Delivered at your venue, this course covers how to avoid and manage conflict situations and is applicable in a range of roles where there is direct contact with customers, service users and the general public. Weekend training is available.

The course includes how communication skills can be used to both avoid conflict and to resolve problems once conflict has been defused. It then considers the factors that influence human responses in a conflict situation for example triggers and inhibitors, and moves on to ways in which to assess and reduce risks in conflict situations.
