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
Some observers believe that we can expect even more conflicts in the years to come.2 They note that there is growing pressure on organizations to innovate, change, and adapt. These pressures increase workloads and generate job insecurity. 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.
Conflict experts Joyce Hocker and William Wilmot define conflict as “an expressed struggle between at least two interdependent parties who perceive incompatible goals, scarce resources, and interference from others in achieving their goals.”3 Conflict begins when the parties express their thoughts and feelings to each other through their behaviors. They engage in conflict because they depend to some degree on one another. The choices of one party affect the options of others, as when one employee’s choice of vacation time interferes with the vacation plans of a fellow worker. Wilmot and Hocker believe that the sources of conflict identi.

Workplace Conflict & Strategies for ManagementJharna Jagtiani
Conflict is a normal and natural part of any workplace. When it occurs, there is a tendency for morale to be lowered, an increase in absenteeism and decreased productivity. It has been estimated that managers spend at least 25 percent of their time resolving workplace conflicts – causing lowered office performance.
Conflict is an inevitable result of social interaction in our everyday lives. It occurs because we engage in situations and circumstances with people who have different goals, values and backgrounds.

3. DEFINITION OF CONFLICT AND
INTERPERSONAL CONFLICT
Conflict: Conflicts means disagreement,
interference and negative emotion. According
to Oxford English Dictionary, conflict refers to
a series of disagreement or argument;
incompatibility between opinions, principles,
etc.
Interpersonal Conflict: Interpersonal
conflict occurs when a person or group of
people frustrates or interferes with another
person's efforts at achieving a goal. It can be
between co-workers, team members or
roommates.
4. MANAGING
INTERPERSONAL CONFLICT
Managing conflicts focuses on
maintaining conflict at the right level to
help the department, work unit or
organization reach its goals. It neither
means complete elimination of conflict
nor does it refer only to conflict
reduction.
The basic process of conflict
management is the selection of desired
level of conflict that varies according to
the perceived conflicts requirements by
the managers of the unit.
5. APPROACHES TO
CONFLICT RESOLUTION
There are different approaches to
conflict reduction. The key to effective
conflict prevention is to choose a
conflict management style appropriate
for the conflict. The most common
approaches used for conflict resolution
are as –
1.The Thomas Conflict Resolution
Approach
2.Behavioral Style and Conflict Handling
3.The Cosier Schank Model of Conflict
Resolution
4.Collaboration and Conflict Resolution
6. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
The Thomas-Kilmann model of conflict
resolution is a widely used approach to
understand different ways people deals
with conflict.
It identifies five resolution styles along
two dimensions for resolving conflicts.
The Two dimensions are –
i)Assertiveness:
- Individual seeks to satisfy own
concerns
ii) Cooperativeness
- Individual seeks to satisfy other’s
concerns
7. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
These two dimensions are
used to define five
conflict-handling modes –
1.Avoiding
2.Accommodating
3.Compromising
4.Competing
5.Collaborating
8. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
1. Avoiding:
It is unassertive and uncooperative.
This is when you simply avoid the issue.
You aren’t helping the other party reach
their goals, and you aren’t assertively
pursuing your own.
Avoiding might take the form of
diplomatically sidestepping an issue,
postponing an issue until a better time, or
simply withdrawing from a threatening
situation.
9. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
2. Accommodation
It is unassertive and cooperative—the
opposite of competing.
This is when you cooperate to a high-
degree, and it may be at your own
expense, and actually work against your
own goals, objectives, and desired
outcomes.
Accommodating might take the form of
selfless generosity or charity, obeying
another person’s order when you would
prefer not to, or yielding to another’s
point of view.
10. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
3. Compromise
It is intermediate in both assertiveness
and cooperativeness
This is the “lose-lose” scenario where
neither party really achieves what they
want. This requires a moderate level of
assertiveness and cooperation.
Compromising might mean splitting the
difference, exchanging concessions, or
seeking a quick middle-ground position.
11. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
4. Competition
It is assertive and uncooperative, a
power-oriented mode.
This is the “win-lose” approach. You act in a
very assertive way to achieve your goals,
without seeking to cooperate with the other
party, and it may be at the expense of the
other party.
Competing might mean standing up for
your rights, defending a position you
believe is correct, or simply trying to win.
12. THE THOMAS CONFLICT
RESOLUTION APPROACH
5. Collaboration
It is both assertive and cooperative.
This is where you partner or pair up with
the other party to achieve both of your goals.
This is how you break free of the “win-lose”
paradigm and seek the “win-win.”
Collaborating between two persons might
take the form of exploring a disagreement to
learn from each other’s insights, resolving
some condition that would otherwise have
them competing for resources, or confronting
and trying to find a creative solution to an
interpersonal problem.
14. Which one is Best??
There is no BEST way to handle conflict. Each conflict is different and
requires a different response.
As a society, we teach:
“Leave well enough alone.” (Avoiding)
“Kill your enemies with kindness.” (Accommodating)
“Split the difference.” (Compromising)
“Might makes right.” (Competing)
“Two heads are better than one.” (Collaborating)
15. BEHAVIOURAL STYLE AND
CONFLICT HANDLING
Sometimes, conflict arises in organization due to the
individual’s specific behavioral style in approaching
the problem.
To explain different styles, researchers have taken
two dimensions of interactive behavior. They are –
i)The Assertiveness Scale:
It is the degree to which behaviors are seen by others
as forceful or directive.
ii)The Responsiveness Scale:
It is the degree to which behaviors are seen by others
as emotionally expensive or controlled.
16. BEHAVIOURAL STYLE AND
CONFLICT HANDLING
The interactive dimensions
of assertiveness and
responsiveness form the
two axis of the behavioral
style model.
Each quadrant of this
model identifies one type
of behavioral style. They
are –
1.Analyzer
2.Director
3.Relator
4.Socializer

analysis, organization, precision, problem-
solving, and solitude.

This type is less responsive and more
assertive.
Prefers direct approach, control,
freedom, action, and results.
Rejects openness, wastage of time,
excessive display of emotions, and
unsolicited advice.
Often decides and works alone.
19. BEHAVIOURAL STYLE AND
CONFLICT HANDLING
3. Relator
This type is more responsive and less
assertive.
Prefers indirect approach, openness,
close relations, listening, and security.
Avoids decision-making, conflicts, big
picture, and self-reliance.
May need counseling in weak areas.
20. BEHAVIOURAL STYLE AND
CONFLICT HANDLING
4. Socializer
This type is more responsive and more
assertive.
Prefers direct approach, openness,
group activities, camaraderie, and
spontaneity.
Avoids solitude, urgency, and
concentration.

deliver results. Direct and Open

DIFFICULT BOSS AND COLLEAGUES
Subordinates find it difficult to work with a boss
who exercise too much control over them. It
can take various forms like ignoring, sarcasm,
blaming, dismissing or patronizing.
The reasons why conflict with boss arises are –
due to unnecessary interference and threat
by the boss
due to misuse the legitimate power by the
boss
feeling of insecurity or dive to control
when the boss perceives his status as
greater than what it is reality.

Challenging
Challenging means demanding a response
from the other person. It can be done
by seeking information as to what he

time to think on how to proceed and
thus the others have to be cautions
about his behaviour .
28. DEALING WITH
DIFFICULT BOSS AND COLLEAGUES
Standing up for oneself
One’s should stick to one’s point of view. If
a criticism is made in the form of a
personal attack, try to separate the
personal nature of the remark from the
actions criticized. If the criticism has
some valid point , it is wise to accept
those points.
Editor's Notes
To understand the importance of managing conflict and techniques to resolve interpersonal conflict it is very much essential to understand the meaning of conflict and the interpersonal conflict.
5. Dealing with Difficult Subordinates
6. Dealing with difficult Boss and Colleagues
Hostile-aggressive: They surprise and attack people at emotional substantive levels. It is a “Guerrilla” warfare tactic. They attack when one is least expecting it. It requires avoidance of direct confrontation while at the same time one has to stand for oneself.
Complainers: These are people who complain but rarely act. They feel powerless and persistently exaggerate problems. One does not need to support them by being sympathetic towards them.
Calms: Such people are silent and indirect and they avoid open conflict. Encouraging and supporting open dialogue can bring the best out of these people.
