“Although our grammar schools are teaching a whole generation computer language to adjust to the technological needs of a Stage II [post survival-focused] society, we have neglected to teach this generation relationship language and conflict resolution skills to address the social and psychological needs of a Stage II society. And when it is taught, in countries like Germany, although called social competence it focuses on workplace teamwork - still on survival, breadwinner oriented work goals.” NeedsStillsCountryWholeSchoolLanguageSocialGoalTeachGenerationsTeachingStageTaughtSkillsConflictComputerSurvivalFocusedPsychologicalPostsGermanyAddressesResolutionTeamworkTechnologicalWorkplaceGrammarCompetenceNeglectedThis GenerationConflict ResolutionComputer LanguageGrammar SchoolBreadwinnerPsychological Needs Author:Warren Farrell
“Every conflict we face in life is rich with positive and negative potential. It can be a source of inspiration, enlightenment, learning, transformation, and growth-or rage, fear, shame, entrapment, and resistance. The choice is not up to our opponents, but to us, and our willingness to face and work through them.” InspirationFacesLife IsChoicesGrowthRichSourceConflictEnlightenmentNegativeTransformationShameRageResistanceOpponentsWillingnessWorkplaceConflict ResolutionSource Of InspirationEntrapment Book:Resolving conflicts at work: a complete guide for everyone on the job Source: Resolving conflicts at work: a complete guide for everyone on the job
“When people respond too quickly, they often respond to the wrong issue. Listening helps us focus on the heart of the conflict. When we listen, understand, and respect each other's ideas, we can then find a solution in which both of us are winners.” PeopleHeartIdeasHelpingIssuesFocusListeningConflictSolutionsWinnerWorkplaceRespect Each Other Author:Gary Chapman
“Recently there's been a trend to apply the term "bullying" to any kind of conflict at work, for example overwork and long hours. Although some bullying behaviours may be present in these issues, in my view this dilutes and devalues the term "workplace bullying" which should be used only for the more serious cases of conflict involving a serial bully. If there isn't a serial bully involved, it's probably not bullying you're dealing with.” IfsShouldKindMayLongUsedTermHoursViewsCasesIssuesExampleSeriousInvolvedConflictBullyingTrendsBehaviourWorkplaceBullyInvolvingSerialsLong HoursOverworkDevalue Author:Tim Field
