Practical and Legal Considerations to Conflict Resolution
In organizations, conflict is inevitable, and good conflict management tools are essential. Conflict resolution can be defined as the informal or formal process that two or more parties use to find a peaceful solution to their dispute.
Unresolved conflicts can lead to legal issues such as workplace harassment, sexual harassment and violence in the workplace.
Once a conflict escalates to the legal realm, it involves cost to resolve and for the most part includes incurring legal fees to negotiate, mediate, arbitrate and or litigate.
