Description

This programme is essential for all people who have to manage others – or those who have to work effectively in a team – whether in the office or at a work site. Good management involves effective conflict resolution.

Conflict and disagreements are inevitable in human relationships, but conflicts can be costly for employees and employers. A large percentage of work time is wasted defending, avoiding, and venting to others. Absenteeism (due to workplace conflict) can cost a company millions per year.

Employees who feel mistreated and disrespected often withhold ideas and refuse to share information, skills, and knowledge, which further damages organizations.

Workplace conflicts also result in increased client complaints, sabotage, increased injury and accidents, rising disability claims, grievances and litigation, employee turnover; and low morale. For individuals, the results are equally damaging. They include: stress, frustration and anxiety; depression; loss of sleep; strained relationships; and poor performance.  This programme is therefore of vital importance to all pest controllers
