Conflict
A
process in which one party perceives that his or her interests are being opposed or negatively affected by another party
Task-related conflict occurs when people disagree about task issues, such as
goals, key decision areas, procedures, and the appropriate choice for action.
Socioemotional - conflict differences are viewed as personal attacks rather than attempts to resolve an issue.
Manifest conflict is when conflict perceptions and emotions evolve in the decisions and overt behaviors of one party toward the other. Conflict outcomes result in negative outcomes for the organization. Constructive controversy helps people to learn about other points of view, which encourages them to re-examine their basic assumptions about a problem and its possible solution.
Incompatible goals occur when one employee or departments personal or work goals seem to interfere with another person or departments goals. Differentiation conflict that occurs by different values and beliefs due to unique backgrounds, experiences, or training. Task interdependence exists when team members must share common inputs to their individual tasks, need to interact in the process of executing their work, or receive outcomes (such as rewards) that are partly determined by the performance of others.
Collaborating tries to find a mutually beneficial solution for both parties through problem solving. Avoiding tries to smooth over or avoid conflict situations altogether. Competing tries to win the conflict at the others expense. Accommodating involves giving in completely to the other sides wishes, or at least cooperating with little or no attention to your own interests.
Choosing the best conflict management style ideally we use different styles under different conditions, but most of us have a preferred conflict management style. Cultural and gender differences in conflict management styles.
Emphasizing superordinate goals are common objectives held by conflicting parties that are more important than the departmental or individual goals on which the conflict is based. Reducing differentiation to minimize dysfunctional conflict. Improving communication and understanding this can range from casual gatherings among employees who rarely meet otherwise, to formal processes where differences are identified and discussed.

conflict resolution is any attempt by a relatively neutral person to help the parties resolve their differences. Procedural fairness is particularly important when the third party makes a binding decision to resolve the dispute.
Arbitration is the final stage of grievances by unionized employees, and is becoming more common in nonunion conflicts. Arbitrators have control over the final decision, but low control over the process. Inquisition inquisitors control all discussion about the conflict and choose the form of conflict resolution. Mediation mediators have control over the intervention process.
