The first step in managing any problem starts with everyone acknowledging there is a problem, followed by a mutual willingness to change. It’s easy to pretend everything is OK, but making positive changes for long-lasting results is more meaningful.
Conflict resolution books offer a starting point in resolving or preparing for potential conflict at work. It’s advisable to reflect, read, re-read, and readjust your attitude towards conflict to approach it with an open mind, ready to resolve the dispute.
Here are some of the best books on conflict resolution.
Conflict management books aim to help you see through the panic or chaos of a conflict, but only you can manage the outcome and exercise the learnings.
The best books about conflict resolution are the books that help you and resonate with your situation.
When you’re reading, take notes. If you’re uncomfortable marking the margins, ensure you have a pad and pen nearby. After each section, complete any of the included exercises or take a moment to reflect. If you’re unsure, run it by a colleague or peer. Talking about it with others also cues them into conflict resolution and de-escalation techniques.
As you learn how to improve conflict resolution skills, you’ll learn to lean on books and teachings from those who have been there and resolved that.
