“THE EXCHANGE” 2/2  Training Managers to Mediate & Calm Conflict among Co-Workers


What to expect:

 

As your company attracts a more and more diverse workforce, are your managers able to handle the conflicts that naturally arise from diverse opinions?   Ignoring or mismanaging conflict can be extremely costly in terms of both lost productivity and lowered morale.  To address the need for such mediation training in Japan, Hitotsubashi University and ICFJ (International Coach Federation, Japan Chapter) are bringing one of the leading conflict resolution centers in the U.S. to Japan to provide professional training for conflict situations. Participants will learn how to manage conflict in the workplace when two employees have an issue with their working relationship, using proven communication skills and a four-stage mediation process.  Aspects of how cultural differences affect conflict resolution will also be addressed.

 

What participants will learn:

  • The meaning and practice of interest-based conflict resolution
  • How to manage workplace conflict effectively
  • Communication skills for better intercultural relations

What we will do:

  • Short lectures to explain concepts
  • Interactive exercises
  • Practice of techniques and process
  • Directed discussions
  • Peer and facilitator feedback
