Conflict arises when groups or individuals are unable to obtain their needs or wants and pursue self-interest. It can occur consciously or unconsciously. Conflict is defined as a struggle between two interdependent parties who see incompatible goals. Organizational conflict arises from changes, competition over scarce resources, and differing cultures. Conflict indicators include disagreements, poor communication, and a lack of respect between parties. Conflict can be constructive if it leads to better decisions or destructive if it undermines cooperation or productivity. The document provides techniques for avoiding or resolving conflict such as open communication, agreeing to disagree, and establishing clear goals and policies.

Conflict in Organizational Life
Conflict is a daily occurrence in every organization. Managers estimate that they spend between 20% and 40% of their time dealing with disagreements. Common sources of organizational conflict include these:1
· Interests: Benefits, budgets, organizational policies, office location, and other wants and needs
· Data: The best sources of information; the reliability or the interpretation of data
· Procedures: How to solve problems; how to make decisions; how to solve conflicts
· Values: How to prioritize interests and options; determining organizational direction
· Dysfunctional relationships: Those marked by distrust, disrespect, lack of integrity, and lack of mutual concern
· Roles: Expectations related to organizational roles; power imbalances between roles
· Communication: How something was said; emotions triggered by words; withholding information

In a global society, the workforce is increasingly diverse, which produces more conflicts between those of different cultural backgrounds. Organizational members now work in different geographical locations and communicate over the Internet rather than face to face. These developments mean that miscommunication is more likely. As organizations empower groups to carry out projects, team members must manage the conflicts that come from working collaboratively.

Wilmot and Hocker believe that the sources of conflict identi.
