Resolving Conflicts at Work is a guide for preventing and
resolving conflicts, miscommunications, and misunderstandings at

intermittent and chronic conflicts in the workplace. In

conflict coaching, and organizational systems design

experts, and consultants seeking to maintain stable and productive
