Overview:

"When Tension Takes Over: Simple Steps for Managers to Resolve Workplace Conflict Before It Spreads" is a powerful and practical training designed for managers who are tired of feeling stuck, silent, or stressed when conflict arises on their team.

Whether it's tension between employees, a breakdown in communication, or a clash of personalities, unresolved conflict can quietly destroy morale, lower productivity, and make the manager feel ineffective. Many managers don't speak up not because they don't care, but because they don't feel equipped. They fear saying the wrong thing, making it worse, or being perceived as biased.

This webinar was created for those real-world moments. You'll learn how to:
  • Identify the early warning signs of workplace conflict before they escalate.
  • Approach tense conversations with calm, clarity, and confidence.
  • Use simple, practical language that disarms tension and fosters resolution.
  • Mediate issues without taking sides and rebuild team trust after conflict.
  • Know when to coach through issues and when it's time to escalate to HR.
This is not a theory-heavy session. It's a manager's guide to dealing with real conflict in real time with the emotional intelligence, leadership presence, and communication tools that today's workplaces demand.

Whether you're a new manager or a seasoned supervisor, this webinar will give you the structure and confidence to handle conflict the right way and become the kind of leader who doesn't avoid tension but transforms it into team growth.

Why should you Attend: If you've ever found yourself stuck between two team members who won't speak to each other, avoiding a hard conversation because you weren't sure how to start it, or walking into tension-filled meetings hoping things would just work themselves out this training is for you.

As a manager, you're expected to lead through conflict, not hide from it. But most managers were never taught how to handle conflict effectively. They've been promoted for their performance, not their people skills. The result? Workplace tension gets ignored, handled poorly, or escalates unnecessarily leaving the manager overwhelmed, the team divided, and the culture at risk.

This webinar offers relief and real guidance. You'll walk away with:
  • A clear understanding of how to recognize conflict early, before it poisons team dynamics
  • A simple step-by-step approach to managing conflict conversations with confidence and neutrality
  • Tools to rebuild trust and restore productivity even after conflict has shaken the team
  • Clarity on when to coach through conflict and when to escalate it appropriately

You don't need to be a conflict resolution expert. You just need the right mindset, practical tools, and a safe space to learn how to lead through difficult moments. This training provides that and more.

Don't wait until unresolved conflict costs you your best people. Attend this training and walk away with the confidence and clarity you need to step into tension and turn it into a turning point for your team.
