Conflicts Are An Unavoidable Part Of Life. In The Workplace,

Although many of us go great lengths to avoid it, sometimes it is just inevitable. People in the workplace setting will always have different ideas, values, and attitudes than others around them. A conflict can arouse in any given setting, and the affect it can have on those involved can either be negative or positive. Depending on the approach and strategies utilized during and after a conflict will determine the result of the conflict. Conflict helps people recognize legitimate differences within an organization or profession and serves as a powerful motivator to improve performance and effectiveness, as well as satisfaction (CCN, 2017). This paper will identify and explore a particular recurring conflict in the

The assessment results advised that I am multi-taskers and tend to think about other action items while working on another. This characteristic is prominent within my current role because I am dealing with other departments and leader to rectify a potential issue. In the event reported issues are not found or corrected this then creates more issues and stop processes. Therefore, a mutil-tasker is a good attribute because it allows me to think outside the box and look at how a potential problem will affect Humana as a whole rather that

For centuries, violence has been the go to way to settle conflicts, but it has also been very controversial throughout the years. While some say war is important in order to maintain our freedom, it is actually a very unnecessary and destructive way of settling conflicts because it kills so many innocent people and it hardly ever accomplishes anything for such a hefty price.

Conflicts are inevitable. It is necessary for the advanced practice nurse to have skills in approaching conflicts, negotiations, and resolutions (Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, & Grady, 2014). According to Hamric et al. (2014), you do not have to feel pressured to instantly agree with other teammates; however, be respectful and listen intently and identify what you are able to offer to the team.

Personality is defined as the unique way in which each individual thinks, acts, and feels throughout life (Ciccarelli, 2014). Numerous individuals are curious in regards to their actions and how their mind works, thus leading companies to create personality tests, in order to provide individuals with some perspective on their personality. While individuals can take personality tests for leisure, personality tests are often utilized in situations such as job interviews, diagnosing mental disorders, and educational purposes. Two popular personality tests are the Keirsey Temperament Sorter and the Big Five Personality test. After taking both tests, I analyzed them using my knowledge of general psychology and of my own actions. I found the

The task of motivating individuals in a group setting requires an understanding of each member’s personality attribute. As such, experts successfully devised theories to help in assessing people’s personality traits. The essence of this evaluation is that many ostensibly discrepancies in a human behavior is orderly and steady because of basic differences in the ways individuals desire to use their perception and judgment. Hence, this paper details my personality

Personality assessments can serve as a powerful and impactful tool that benefits the participants or others with whom your paths may cross. Inevitably, taking assessments like this requires self-awareness in order to maximize the value of the results. In this case, the McGraw-Hill assessment covered a wide array of topics which provided an extensive assessment of my values, personality style, motivational influences and contributing factors that drive my behaviors (McGraw-Hill Education, 2017). This evaluation offered me personal insights on how I behave in various situations, the impact my behavior may have on others, additional context around my personality traits and style, and organizational considerations that may influence my actions,

Nurses are required to interact with multiple individuals on a daily basis. These individuals include the patient, patient’s family members, and other healthcare team members. As the nurse works with these groups of individuals, he or she may experience an interpersonal conflict with any of them. However, it is more likely for the nurse to experience conflicts with other healthcare workers. When the nurse experiences an interpersonal conflict with other members of the healthcare team, tension rises in the workplace, causing stress to all other workers even if they are not directly involved in the conflict. According to Higginbottom, “Employees suffering from high stress levels have lower engagement, are less productive and have higher absenteeism levels than those not working under excessive pressure” (2014, para. 1). In other words, interpersonal conflict at workplace can lower the productivity of the whole healthcare team. I have been licensed as a registered nurse since July of 2013; therefore, my experience regarding interpersonal conflict at workplace is limited. However, I remember one incidence clearly. During my second year of working as a registered nurse, I have experienced an interpersonal conflict with one of the staff at the clinic I worked in, which resulted in dismissal of that staff from the clinic.

My test results from the Myers-Briggs Indicator have articulated my time management skills, study skills, and communication skills. Even though I have characteristic traits from all of the extraverts and introverts, sensing and intuition, thinking and feeling, judging and perceiving categories, the course has been helpful in improving my above mentioned skills.

There are a variety of areas of conflict within my organization. In my opinion the conflicting areas are as follows lack of communication, leadership skills, management skills, and the lack of productive workers. As a results of these conflicting areas many of the employees within my organization are experiencing a lot of stress and are at risk of burning out. In order to reduce the level of stress within the workplace many of the productive workers have determined that it is more appropriate to do the bare minimum and are becoming less productive. Those who have burned out no longer have strong work ethic, instead their professional work ethic has become weak and pretty miniscule. How I work through these conflicts are pretty simple I take

Avoiding conflict is a pivotal and detrimental part of my life. For as long as I can remember I have attempted to avoid conflict at all cost. I assume Sigmund Freud would attribute this trait to the lack of a real father figure in my life or possibly the excess amount of condescending, over bearing, and verbally abusive reprimands I received from my step-father. When confronting someone who has wronged you results in a worse outcome than being passive you tend to learn very quickly that it’s easier to live emotionally oppressed than it is to live physically oppressed. It’s been a long time since those days and I am not the young kid I once was but, sometimes I still try to avoid conflict like my life depends on it. The most recent, or even

Conflict is a fact of life - for individuals, organizations, and societies. The costs of conflict are well-documented - high turnover, grievances and lawsuits, absenteeism, divorce, dysfunctional families, prejudice, fear. What many people don't realize is that well-managed conflict can actually be a force for positive change.

People face conflict every day of their lives and, most often, many different types of conflict in one day. Conflict is something that causes anxiety and fear and most often is something people want to avoid if they can. The good thing about conflict is that is forces a person to focus on the skills they have to find a solution that makes them feel good inside. How people respond to conflict depends on their understanding of the problem facing them, deciding to overcome the challenge successfully and then using brainstorming and decision making skills to actually implement a plan to overcome the conflict they are facing.
