Conflictmanagement

“Who did it wrong?”

Often in conflicts the “guilty one” is searched for - hoping with reprimanding, transfer or dismissal the problems have been solved. Usually quite the opposite is true since the “guilty ones” often function as symptoms of unresolved problems within a company. If they are excluded the conflict may erupt with intensified force elsewhere. For a lasting resolution the underlying dynamics of a conflict have to be considered.

First step to a resolution: Acknowledging

The first leap is acknowledgement which means actually recognizing the invisible positive intentions in negatively assessed behaviour. It is imperative to understand how prejudices in thinking, feeling and behaviour arise.

Second step: recognizing system dynamics

Using the constellation method underlying system dynamics leading to conflict become visible.Systemic simulation indicates necessary steps towards a practical solution.

Third step: Mediation and implementation

Suitable measures towards finding a functioning and stable structure are f.i. interface team and mediation processes between the conflict parties. As the coach supports this process from outside the corporate system he or she can facilitate sustainable resolution.

Teambuilding

The invisible second structure

An informal structure usually exists behind or underneath the official structure with its job descriptions. Top positions of this invisible hierarchy are habitually in the hands of secret leaders. Team difficulties often have their roots in a conflict between official and unofficial structure. Apart from official goals and agreements invisible rules are regulating rank and affiliation in the company and actually influencing your corporate culture. Hence success of a team can only be obtained considering both levels, the official and the concealed one.
