How can I effectively handle conflict in a group setting?

Handling conflict in groups involves clear communication, active listening, and finding common ground. What specific situation are you facing?

There's a disagreement between two team members that is affecting our project.

It's important to address the disagreement promptly. Have you considered facilitating a meeting where both can express their views?

Yes, but I'm worried it might escalate.

To prevent escalation, set ground rules for the discussion, like respect and no interruptions. Would you like tips on those rules?

That would be helpful, thank you!

Sure! Establish rules like 'speak one at a time' and 'focus on the issue, not the person.' This can help maintain a constructive atmosphere.
