Management - Uncommon Conflict Resolution with Tough Critters
This
session will provide unique, non-traditional and highly effective
methods for managing conflict with the most
insufferable and obstreperous people in the workplace, particularly
after reasonable approaches have failed.
HR professionals recognize that mediation, negotiation and other “let’s
be reasonable” approaches to workplace conflict often fails
with intimidating, manipulative or mean-spirited people (i.e., “beasts”).
Dealing with these “tough critters” requires innovative,
high-impact tactics that neutralize the psychological power wielded
by vexatious people.
Participants
will learn:
- Critical
leverage points with tough critters.
- The "finesse" approach
to conflict.
- Psychological
Aikido.
- Mentally
disarming adversaries.
- Managing
specific types of "beasts".
