Conflict is bad and terrible things will occur if differences in opinion are aired.Conflict will rip apart the team or its esprit de corps..It#39;s better not to engage in conflict; harmony must prevail at all costs.The parties will never get over those negative feelings.The issue will cause a chain reaction that will halt or delay productivity and involve other people.

As leaders we should take actions to minimize the negative aspects of conflict.

nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; We should realize that conflict is natural and happens all the time.

• 
  Stress the positive aspects of conflict; just because tension arises, the world is not going to collapse. In fact, if handled well, conflict often leads to innovation.


• 
  Realize that conflict can be handled in a positive way that leads to personal and professional growth, development and productivity.


• 
  Encourage others to bring up conflict and differences. Allowing them to fester inevitably encourages them to erupt later, usually at a most inopportune time.


• 
  Identify the root cause(s) of the conflict. You can#39;t begin to unravel the potential negativity in conflict and look toward progress until you determine the source of the issue.


• 
  Look at the issue from all sides. Inspect the positive and negative factors that each party sees to fully comprehend what is at stake.


• 
  Devise a complete list of actions to address the issue; ensure that each party believes that he/she has had input in the final product or decision.


• 
  Decide on the step that best addresses and resolves the issue. Again, all parties need to see that they have had input into this step.


• 
  Agree on whatever next steps are necessary to implement the mutually agreed-upon action.


• 
  Review the process that you used to arrive at the final decision, hoping to implement a similar successful plan when negative conflict next arises.

i wish you all the best as you purpose to embrace peace
