The Problem

• Conflicts at work are challenging

enough between peers.

• But when power is unequal, such as

between a boss and subordinate,

traditional conflict resolution methods

often fail.

• Managers spend 30-40% of their time dealing with

conflict−−but get stuck using the same conflict

resolution tactics again and again−−without success.

6

• Often, those in high-power lose. That’s right. They

lose. They don’t achieve their goals or create value.

• Conflicts can choke an organization. The powerful get

frustrated or dictatorial. The powerless lose their

motivation and respect for leadership.

The Cost

• Leadership failures. Organizational failures.

7

• Erosion of teamwork.

• Increased stress-related illness and sabotage.

• Less honesty, less innovation.

• Power differences are seldom addressed in conflict

resolution training. (It’s a dirty little secret. )
