Resolving Conflicts In Your Business By Setting Ground Rules

One thing that can dismantle your business more quickly than anything is unsolved, incessant, internal conflicts. Even though you are unable to - and probably unwilling to - be involved in solving every conflict, you can have a hand in the way every conflict is solved by having ground rules in place. With ground rules in place for resolving conflicts, your employees will be able to solve their disputes calmly and with as little mess as possible!

One of the first things you want to do, in setting the ground rules for resolving conflicts, is to make sure that the processes are detailed and documented. Your ultimate goal, when it comes to employee conflicts, is for the employees to be able to police themselves, resolving 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 always start from the top and work its way down, which means that your employees should feel comfortable communicating with you because of the way in which you communicate with them! 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.

Of course, should there be a conflict that the employees are unable to work out on their own, it is important that you have a step in place that enables you or a manager to step in and mediate. In this way, you will be able to keep things in your business under control and have a clear view of everything that is going on.

Few things can derail a small business as quickly as conflicts among the employees. When you learn how to set the ground rules to enable employees to take care of their conflicts on their own as often as possible, you will help your business run much more smoothly!
