Roles of Management in Conflict Reduction

Managing Moral Conflicts

Managers and Conflict Management

All organizations are like living organisms, constantly moving, changing, and interacting, and

a change in any one element affects the organization as a whole

Some parts of the system operate informally and unofficially

Managers and supervisors must improve conflict management within the organization in order to

minimize costs.

Seven key principles that can guide top supervisors and managers ...

1- Prevent unnecessary conflict ...

Caused by creating competitive situations

Caused by failing to clearly define roles and responsibilities

Caused by failing to establish areas and lines of authority

Caused by making decisions without consulting the stakeholders

2- Be courageous in the face of conflict

3- Focus on the general pattern of conflict management in the organization

4- Promote informal resolution of conflict

by creating policies that state a preference for resolution by discussion, although with authority

still specified for making final decisions

5- Formal processes need to be in place for conflict management

6- Assess and improve on the organizational culture

7- Model the behaviors they desire in conflict management

Moral and Cultural Conflicts

Moral conflicts are those in which the issues are framed as matters of what is morally right and

morally wrong

Note from the outset that this absolute framing is a dysfunctional conflict strategy

Moral values are inherently subjective, yet they are usually held as nonnegotiable absolutes

In a dispute about a moral question, it’s difficult to reach a win-win resolution

Among the specific tactics that may be helpful in dealing with moral conflicts is reframing, that is, finding a constructive new way to view a conflict

through a different lens or frame.

Other useful tactics include fractionating

Developing empathy

Attempting to build mutual trust
