Conflicts are unpleasant, but they are part of everyday work and private life. Not only do different people come together in the workplace, but also different expectations, attitudes and behaviours. This can create friction or lead to conflict. But not every disagreement is a conflict.

A conflict is when one experiences incompatibilities in thinking, feelings or intentions with other people. And these incompatibilities restrict one’s own actions. This can be the case, for example, if you have the feeling that your superior distributes work assignments unfairly. Or if a team member keeps disregarding others and the other staff members can no longer get a word in edgewise. Such situations can lead to an outcome where people can no longer perform assignments satisfactorily.

If a conflict is blocking you or you are suffering greatly from a conflict, then professional support can help. In the Movis employee counselling service, you have the opportunity to look at the conflict with an external, neutral counsellor – and find out how the situation could be steered in a constructive direction. So you feel good again and can concentrate on your tasks.
