Cost of Conflict

What is the Cost of Conflict in your organization?

Employee litigation is on the rise - by nearly 300% in little more than a decade.
Jury awards to successful litigants are increasing dramatically - one in five wins over a million dollars, according to one study.
The cost of workplace conflict includes reduced productivity; increased absenteeism; expense of ongoing turnover; time and resources diverted from your mission to your defense; work relationships suffer - as well as public image, credibility.

"Intellectuals solve problems. Geniuses prevent them." -Albert Einstein
