Why book this course?

Our workplaces offer us the chance to work with a wide variety of people. With so many different experiences and perspectives, we tend to see the world in different ways. This diversity provides many positive opportunities - but it can also increase the potential for conflict.

Whether you're experiencing consistently disruptive or aggressive behaviour or sensing more subtle underlying tensions, conflict is a major source of stress, and can affect morale, self-confidence and ultimately productivity. Our course will give you the tools and the confidence to disarm these tensions, and resolve conflict in an amicable way. 

Who is the course for?

This interactive conflict management and resolution training course is ideal for anyone who wants to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to identify and deal effectively with workplace tensions and conflict.

It may be particularly useful for managers and supervisors who are in a position to resolve conflicts, but the skills it teaches can be helpful for anyone looking to improve their working relationships, and to communicate more effectively.

What content will the course cover?

  • Understand the obvious and less obvious sources of conflict at work

  • Understanding your working environment 

  • Identifying negative working relationships 

  • Resolving conflict between individuals

  • Using healthy and positive conflict to reach agreements and goals

  • Identify your own preferred style when dealing with conflict 

  • Using assertive behaviour to maintain control

  • Practice effective communication to facilitate resolution

  • Develop a personal plan for dealing with conflict situations.

What will I get out of the training?

Our Conflict Management and Resolution in the Workplace course will help you to proactively identify and manage conflict at work. By learning about sources of conflict, the working environment and how to tackle conflict at an early, informal stage, you’ll prevent issues from escalating into serious disputes that require the use of formal procedures.

At Kent Trainers, we’re proud to take a personal approach to training. Learners on our Conflict Management and Resolution in the Workplace course will benefit from individual discussions and feedback, sharing the issues they face in their workplace and receiving tailored advice on how to solve them.

What is my experience?

I have been fortunate enough to have worked across the globe, with over 20 years in senior management and training roles. Throughout this time, I have gained a wealth of experience working across a diverse range of teams, cultures, and industries.

My roles in learning and development have been across both the private and public sector. These included working as a European Training Manager, based in Italy, as well as Senior Lecturer, delivering customer service training to NVQ's levels 2 & 3. Whilst working as Head of Training at a Kent based consultancy, I also headed up the delivery of ILM programmes and became the Internal Verifier for all courses up to level 7.

In 2006 I launched my own Training and Business Consultancy, allowing me to incorporate my knowledge of Business Management with Training. My focus since then has been on developing and delivering bespoke Personal Development and Management training courses for not only SME’s but right through to large corporations and public sector.

What is my area of expertise?

I oversee the Kent Trainers training programmes, including the Leadership and Management programmes, which are accredited by The Institute of Leadership and Management. I maintain a keen interest in keeping our focus on delivering high quality, consistently relevant courses.

Specialist areas I cover include:
Management and Leadership
Performance Management
Customer Service
Team Development
Sales/Telesales
Coaching and Mentoring
Personal Development

Why I love inspiring others?

I have a passion and enthusiasm for training which I believe is crucial to any training environment.  I believe in giving inspiring, thought provoking training that is not only engaging but can be utilised in real life, whether that is in business or life in general.
