Gossiping about coworkers is extremely harmful to an organization's culture. Coworkers who listen to and repeat and embellish gossip are complicit with those who initiate the rumors. Gossip may be interpreted as a personal attack whether or not it has anything to do with the work causing conflict among team members which can result in a lack of teamwork and low morale.

With this tool you get the following:

*The effects of the conflict on team members.
*Considerations for the behavior of the team member generating or spreading gossip.
*Numerous solutions for addressing the conflict.
*Ideas for negotiating/adjusting solutions.
*Potential barriers and ways to overcome them to achieve resolution.
*Implementation timeframe.
*Follow-up review commitments.

Additionally, we provide a blank, editable Conflict Resolution Worksheet and the Worksheet Guidelines providing a step-by-step process for addressing your own workplace conflicts.
