The skills used in conflict management are communications skills.

Who is it for?
Anyone that works within a service industry dealing with customers both internal and external as well as those that work within a business.
The key is learning how to manage conflict effectively so that it can serve as a catalyst, rather than a hinderance, to organisational improvement.
Conflict resolution allows for constructive change to occur. If problems and disagreements are ignored rather than being handled constructively, things can only go one of two ways; either things stay the same, or they get worse. But, when people discuss their differences and work through them together, the stage is set for positive change to occur. Although it might be easier in the short term to leave things as they are, this struggle helps everyone involved in the conflict to work through the problem while developing stronger relationships.
