Midwifery Development Session – Exploring workplace conflict and how mediation can help

Free

About the session:

Workplace conflict of any sort, ranging from a process disagreement to personal conflict can be stressful, time consuming and disruptive for those directly & indirectly involved. Responding to conflict when it arises and addressing the root cause at the earliest opportunity can reduce how wide reaching and entrenched the conflict becomes and help to limit the negative residual impact that can often ripple through a team.

Mediation is about working with the employees who are central to the conflict situation.  Helping them understand the key issues, determine possible solutions and how to move forward beyond the conflict.

  • Changing world of work – why this connected to conflict in the workplace
  • What are the components & context of conflict?
  • What is my role as manager in the conflict?
  • How to address conflict before mediation
  • Workplace mediator model (tools and skills) & conflict resolution model (tools and skills)
  • Understanding starting positions in a team mediation

What to expect in these sessions:

The sessions are participative and active. Rebekah uses breakout rooms, interactive feedback tools (Menti.com) and group discussion. We would ask that you come prepared to have your camera’s on to support the interactive and people centred nature of the session.

The sessions are designed to be a warm, relaxed and honest space, for people to share their experiences and connect with colleagues. Much of the issues and challenges you may be facing with your teams and colleagues will be shared by others and we know that realising ‘you aren’t the only one’ often serves to offer comfort and strength.

For Rebekah, the measure of how good any development session is, comes down to – what you end up doing after the session is over. So, these sessions are about practical application; what you do when you are back at your desk, in your next meeting or with your team – where ever possible Rebekah will provide you with things you can use, do or try.
