Abstract

Conflict occurs between people in all kinds of human relationships and in all social settings. Because of the wide range of potential differences among people, the absence of conflict usually signals the absence of meaningful interaction. Conflict by itself is neither good nor bad. However, the manner in which conflict is handled determines whether it is constructive or destructive. Therefore, it is essential to understand the sources causing conflicts so that we can work to maximize productive outcomes and minimize destructive ones. The aim of this study is to investigate the common sources of conflicts and its impact over the organization and the general strategies to minimize the conflicts.
