Your School and Confronting Conflict
Managing Adult Relationships in the School Community
Some workplace conflict is inevitable and has the potential to undermine some of the key fundamentals to a positive working environment. However, there are ways and means to minimise or reduce workplace conflict and to even turn it around into a positive experience.
The National Centre for Leadership and Innovation (NCLI), supported by IPPN, presents Your School and Confronting Conflict seminar. This seminar will promote a change in culture by enabling school leaders to embrace conflict, recognise that it is going to happen and give you the necessary skills to manage it should it occur. This seminar will develop effective conflict management skills and equip you with the practical knowledge you need to deal confidently with any conflict that may arise within your school community. You will leave with practical solutions to real workplace problems.
