PET OF THE WEEK
Lucky Hello, If you come and visit me I will say hello to you in person, I actually have quite the vocabulary. Did you know Amazon parrots are known for our exceptional vocal abilities. I am very calm, intelligent, and love having people around me to chatter to. Since parrots are high maintenance pets, I am looking an experienced bird owner who can spend lots of time with me. I need a fun environment with lots of entertainment. I am about 25 years old, but that's only middle age in parrot years, I can live to be 50 + years, so we will have a long time together. I would love to meet you, maybe it will be our "Lucky" day and you will take me home.
Reference Number: A23674949 Name: Lucky
Included in the adoption fee: - Spay/Neuter surgery - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I thought I could work with just about anyone, but lately I’ve been clashing with the head of another department over priorities and resources. Do you have any advice on handling conflict in the workplace? Signed Conflicted ©iStockphoto.com/mediaphotos
Dear Conflicted: Conflict is not necessarily a bad thing. Differences of opinion can be positive when they create opportunities to improve the organization or workplace.
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
But left unresolved, conflict can increase stress and lower morale in your workplace, which can affect productivity, reduce customer satisfaction and increase staff turnover. You may be able to resolve a workplace issue by talking it through with your co-workers in an informal, positive way. For more information and suggestions, read the Handling People Problems at Work tip sheet on the Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) web site at http://alis.alberta.ca. If you’re facing an issue you can’t resolve informally, you may need to try a more structured approach like Issue-based problem-solving. This six-step approach brings together everyone involved in the conflict to talk about the issue. 1. Explore the issues - Identify issues by using concrete examples including who is involved along with when, how often and where the problems happen. Ask questions like: Do we have all the details? Is everything out in the open? Do we agree on what we need to talk about? Do we understand how these issues are affecting other people? 2. Understand interests - Everyone involved has needs, wants, and fears. Listen to what they need (their interests) instead of their wants (positions). The best solution to the problem is the one that satisfies the most interests. Share your own interests on the issue and why. Ask open ended questions to find out what their interests are. Ask why they have a specific position/opinion to discover their interest. Ask more probing questions to understand their fears and concerns. Focus on areas of common ground without losing sight of different and opposing interests. 3. Develop options - Brainstorm possible solutions that satisfy the interests. Don’t judge any options until you run out of ideas. 4. Choose a solution - Ask the group to choose a solution that meets the most interests. 5. Implement the solution - Decide as a group what needs to be done, how the solution will be evaluated, who will do what, what support they will receive, when it will be done and how they will be accountable for following through on the plan. 6. Evaluate the solution - Measure the success of your solution and report back to the group on its success or the need to develop a new solution. Issue-based problem-solving is a common-sense approach to resolving workplace conflicts before they become complex and costly. Everyone wins when you listen and respect others while working towards a solution. For more information on Issue Based Problem Solving, check out the Let’s Talk publication on the ALIS web site at http://alis.alberta.ca/pdf/cshop/letstalk.pdf. You may also want to engage the services of a conflict-resolution practitioner or professional facilitator who are trained to help others find solutions without taking sides.
