Welcome

Conflict with coworkers can arise in any workplace, and it can be a stressful and uncomfortable situation for everyone involved. Whether the issue is related to communication, work style differences, or a specific incident, it's important to address the conflict in a constructive and timely manner. One effective way to resolve conflicts is to use a formal process that allows both parties to express their concerns and work together to find a solution. This form is designed to help you initiate a conflict resolution process with a mediator, with the goal of reaching a mutually beneficial outcome that allows you and your colleague to continue to work together effectively.

The First Step

One of the most important aspects of conflict resolution is identifying the parties involved and opening up a line of communication. This helps to create a safe and respectful environment for both parties to express their concerns and work towards a resolution. In this form, we will begin by asking for the names of the people involved in the conflict. This simple step is the foundation for moving forward and finding a solution that is fair and equitable for all parties.

What do you want to resolve?

When workplace conflicts arise, they can have a significant impact on not only the individuals involved but also on the overall productivity and success of the organization. It's important to address conflicts in a timely and constructive manner, starting with a clear and detailed understanding of the nature of the conflict and its impact. In this section of the form, we ask you to provide a thorough description of the conflict and how it has affected your work. By doing so, you will be able to identify the specific areas of concern and begin to work towards a resolution that is mutually beneficial for all parties involved.

When can we meet?

When it comes to resolving workplace conflicts, choosing an appropriate time for a resolution session is crucial. This is a time when both parties can come together in a safe and neutral environment to discuss the issues at hand and work towards a positive resolution. To ensure that this session is as productive as possible, it's important to choose a time that is convenient for both parties. In this section of the form, we ask that you provide us with your availability, and we will work with the other party to find a time that works for everyone. The neutral facilitator will schedule the session, taking into account the availability of both parties, to ensure that everyone can attend and participate fully.

You're almost done...

We're glad to hear that you're committed to resolving this conflict in a constructive manner. To move forward with the conflict resolution process, we ask that you both agree to the following terms:
