Conflict and its characteristics

Conflicts as I stated already is a dispute between individuals or instructors. The characteristics of conflicts are explained below:

1.       Conflict is a process- Basically conflicts takes place in different layers. Misunderstanding is always first layer of it and the other layers are differences of interest, viewpoint and cultures. It is also a procedure as it starts with opposing or bullying the other party and it ends up with the different management styles- competing, collaborating, compromising and avoiding.

2.       Conflict is a normal part of the life- Conflicts takes place as different individuals have their unlimited needs and requirements and due to scarcity of unlimited resources. Basically conflict is not an issue, but if we will not focus on the main point it will become an issue.

3.       Conflict is inevitable- it is inevitable that conflicts exists everywhere. Not each and every persons have same thinking. Although inevitable, conflict can be minimized, diverted and/or resolved. Conflict creates on the grounds that we are managing individuals' lives, employments,

youngsters, pride, self-idea, conscience and feeling of mission.

4.       Everyone is inflicted with conflicts- Conflicts might happen inside one people, between two or more people, different group or among different associations.

5.       Fueled by poor communications- Poor communications is the most important characteristics of conflict.it can create uncertainty which leads to stress. Listening is the main error, if an employee fails to listen the instructions of the supervisor, it may results in conflicts.

Conflict indicators

·         Body language.

·         Ignoring each other.

·         Disagreements.

·         With holdings bad news.

·         Increasing lack of respect.

·         Lack of vision to achieve the goals.

·         To manage issue separately in different meetings.

According to my opinion, conflict has its own type of nature, without conflicts a person cannot learn how to deal with the ups and downs of the life.
