Resolving Conflicts In Your Business By Setting Ground Rules

If you run your own business, you will find that internal conflicts in the business can quickly dismantle everything toward which you are working. Although you cannot be in the middle of every conflict as it happens (nor do you want to be!), you can have ground rules in place for resolving conflicts. Having such ground rules is of the utmost importance, as it enables your employees to solve their disputes in a calm manner with as little mess as possible!

When setting the ground rules for resolving conflicts, one of the first things you want to make sure you do is detail and document the processes. When it comes to employee conflicts, your ultimate goal is for the employees to be able to police themselves and resolve the conflicts on their own. But if your ground rules are not detailed and documented, your employees will be trying to solve their conflicts without ever knowing if they are following protocol.

Open communication is another important aspect of conflict resolution within a business, and it will be up to you to make sure that your business has an environment that employees feel is conducive to open communication. Communication should start from the top and trickle down, which means that you should communicate with your employees, but it also means they should be able to communicate with you! When you establish an environment in which employees feel comfortable communicating with you and their other managers, they will also feel comfortable communicating with one another.

In the end, however, you also need to have a step in place that does enable you or a manager to step in and resolve conflict if the employees are unable to do so on their own. In this way, you can ensure that you still have a clear view of everything that is going on in your business, and will be able to keep things under control.

Conflicts among employees can derail a small business faster than just about anything else. But set ground rules that direct and enable your employees to take care of their conflicts on their own as much as possible, and you will find that your business is running much more smoothly!
