Turn conflicts into constructive dialogues!

Conflicts can be a positive catalyst in your organisation. When matters are discussed in an open and free exchange of ideas, new solutions can be explored and tested. Without healthy conflicts and a climate of trust among your employees, your organisation will stagnate. Problems arise when these healthy conflicts become personal and start affecting team performance, even leading to violations of personal integrity. Such conflicts are detrimental to your employees’ well being and to the company’s business performance. Recent statistics in Sweden shows that bullying and harassment in both the private and public sector result, on average, in 210 sick leave days for women and 250 for men.

To prevent and handle unwanted conflicts in your workplace, Upspring is at your service with the following products:

• Group coaching. Studies show that unwanted conflicts often arise in groups and project teams where the objective and work methods are unclear. Upspring can help your team formulate the objective, specify the best working method that can lead to success and defuse personal issues.

• Leadership coaching. The fact is that most conflicts arise, not through the fault of the quarrelling partners, but as a result of deficient leadership in the organisation. Do you want to be a better business leader? We can coach you to attain your objective.

• Mediation. When the unwanted conflict has arisen, it needs to be resolved quickly. Upspring can supply you with an unbiased and neutral mediator who can intervene in the dispute and support the individuals involved.

• Courses in social interaction. Prevention is most important. Upspring offers half-day and whole-day courses in social interaction, human dignity, bullying, discrimination and cultural integration.
