Entry 9: Conflicts in Meeting date : 6th May 2021 (week 4) Topics: Conflicts in Meeting Duration of time spent on this entry: 2 hours Personal reflection I believe most of the people in the world have been in a meeting at least once in their life. Even a small group meetup is considered a meeting. And meeting conflict is inevitable.in my experience seeing my upper colleagues getting scolded by the supervisor or the CEO itself is an experience that is not rare, because in a small group meeting for assignment there's always an issue of conflicts that we couldn't avoid let alone a larger group of people or larger industry. The issues can come from the internal for example worker itself due to lack of communication or a community weak teamwork. I've seen a few of my colleagues during work a year ago, having disagreements and verbal arguing just to prove a point. And now everytime during group work online meetings are the last thing everyone wants to do, it's excruciating pain for everyone. Conflicts are inevitable but how to avoid it at least ? People disagree, new research shows. People disagree for some reason (De Bono, 1985). For disagreement it happens When they see things differently because of different ideas and perspectives. Many of these differences are generally not significant. Personality differences or conflicting emotional needs can lead to conflict. Conflict arises when two groups or individuals in the same situation see their situation differently due to different parameters, information related to the universe, consciousness, background, disposition, intellect. or point of view. It is clear that the company has different styles, principles, values, beliefs and slogans that determine its choices and goals. When there are different possibilities, people want different things and this can lead to conflict situations. For example, managers who take risks do not fit well with risk mitigation regulators who believe that strict controls and routines are applied (Session 5. Conflict Management, n.d.) Conflicts are inevitable in organizations. However, conflict can be used as a driver of healthy change. In today's environment, several factors create competition; may differ between departmental goals, individual goals, resource use competition, or different perspectives. It must be consolidated and used effectively to achieve the organizational goals. 24
