Conflict Resolution in the Workplace
In a large hospital in California, a young woman, Xante, was hired as a Registered Nurse (RN), and was placed in a Task Force of seven other Registered Nurses, including a nurse named George. Xante had worked there for about a month when she and her fellow co-workers went for happy-hour after work. Everybody had a great time and had consumed a fair amount of alcohol. When everybody was leaving the bar to head home, George, who had been secretly attracted to Xante since she started working there, hailed a cab and offered to share the ride with Xante. Xante accepted the offer. Once she was inside the cab, George then suddenly made an aggressive sexual advance toward her. Horrified, Xante pushed him away and told him to get out of the cab. Mortified, George got out of the cab.
The next day, Xante came to work with some apprehension. How would she deal with George? Would the cab incident affect her job? Although George did not supervise her, would he try to get her fired? George immediately went to her office and apologized for his extremely inappropriate behavior in the cab. Relieved at his apology, Xante decided not to pursue the matter through any formal channels in the office. She figured that since George apologized, there was no need to dwell on the incident. After all, Xante was a new employee, still in the process of learning the office politics and proving herself as being a competent Registered Nurse. She did not want to rock the boat or bring negative attention to herself.
Everything would have been okay if George had stopped at just one sincerely expressed apology. However, whenever he found himself alone with Xante, George apologized again. And.

Conflict Resolution in the Workplace
In a large hospital in California, a young woman, Xante, was
hired as a Registered Nurse (RN), and was placed in a Task
Force of seven other Registered Nurses, including a nurse
named George. Xante had worked there for about a month when
she and her fellow co-workers went for happy-hour after work.
Everybody had a great time and had consumed a fair amount of
alcohol. When everybody was leaving the bar to head home,
George, who had been secretly attracted to Xante since she
started working there, hailed a cab and offered to share the ride
with Xante. Xante accepted the offer. Once she was inside the
3. cab, George then suddenly made an aggressive sexual advance
toward her. Horrified, Xante pushed him away and told him to
get out of the cab. Mortified, George got out of the cab.
The next day, Xante came to work with some apprehension.
How would she deal with George? Would the cab incident affect
her job? Although George did not supervise her, would he try to
get her fired? George immediately went to her office and
apologized for his extremely inappropriate behavior in the cab.
Relieved at his apology, Xante decided not to pursue the matter
through any formal channels in the office. She figured that since
George apologized, there was no need to dwell on the incident.
After all, Xante was a new employee, still in the process of
learning the office politics and proving herself as being a
competent Registered Nurse. She did not want to rock the boat
or bring negative attention to herself.
Everything would have been okay if George had stopped at just
one sincerely expressed apology. However, whenever he found
himself alone with Xante, George apologized again. And again.
He said he was sorry about the incident at every opportunity he
had for three months. This constant apology was awkward and
annoying to Xante. Ironically, by George apologizing
continuously for his unwanted attention in the cab, he was
foisting another form of unwanted attention upon Xante. When
he first started apologizing, Xante told him that "it was okay".
After three months of many apologies, she reached a point
where she asked him to stop apologizing, to no avail.
Frustrated, she confided in a few co-workers about her unusual
dilemma. Consequently, these co-workers lost respect for
George.
Although the cab incident was not common knowledge in the
office, George sensed that others knew about it by the way they
interacted with him. The incident became the office "elephant"
that the employees "in the know" saw, but didn't explicitly
acknowledge. Meanwhile, Xante was tired of hearing George
apologize and her feelings of discomfort increased. So when
another Registered Nurse position opened up in another
4. department of the hospital, she applied for the job. She will no
longer have George bothering her anymore; but she was
unhappy with her decision to leave her department as she
realized that she really enjoyed her job. She began to regret her
decision to avoid the conflict with George by moving to the new
job. You the manager of the department heard about this
situation and need to address it.
·
Provide a summary of the scenario
·
As the manager for that department, discuss what conflict
management strategies discussed in Chapter 12 you would use
to evaluate the situation, and resolve the conflict.
