Building conflict-positive cultures in organizations

Conflicts, whether open or hidden, affect every organization. Left unmanaged, they undermine trust, collaboration, motivation, and productivity. Yet when approached constructively, conflict can become a catalyst for innovation, stronger relationships, and sustainable performance.

The session will be led by Prof. dr. Barney Jordaan, professor of practice at Vlerick Business School (Belgium), an internationally recognized expert on negotiation and conflict management.

Learning objective

• Develop conflict competence at individual, team, and organizational level
• Move beyond avoidance or power play toward constructive engagement
