Do you ever wonder if workplace conflict could strengthen relationships, instead of breaking them?
In this episode, we chat with mediator Tania Waters about how conflict shows up in the workplace and what happens behind closed doors in mediation. We break down the myths about conflict resolution, from the “personality clash” label to why grievances often fester instead of getting solved.
You’ll hear how Tania’s lived experience from high-pressure law firms to her work as a conflict specialist has shaped her unique approach to resolving tough workplace issues. She shares the real reasons relationships break down at work, how hybrid working has changed conflict dynamics, and why HR teams need to rethink their fear of grievances.
If you’re an HR leader or business leader who wants practical insights on handling conflict with confidence, this one’s for you. You’ll walk away with fresh thinking on how to move from fear and avoidance to open, honest conversations that build stronger workplaces.
Have you ever seen conflict handled well in your organisation, or watched it blow up? I’d love to hear your story. Connect with us on LinkedIn and let’s keep the conversation going.
