PMIAK Chapter Professional Development Day - Leveraging the Power of Conflict
Conflict is an inevitable part of any workplace, but it doesn’t have to be destructive.
When managed effectively, conflict can become a catalyst for collaboration, innovation, and stronger relationships.
In this interactive workshop, participants will explore how to recognize their own conflict styles, manage emotional triggers, and apply the right strategies to navigate challenging situations. Through a blend of lecture, practical tools, and group exercises, you’ll learn how to transform disagreements into opportunities for problem-solving and growth.
By the end of the session, participants will walk away with actionable frameworks and tools to:
- Lead with confidence and composure during conflict
- Foster mutual respect and trust within teams
- Turn tension into productive dialogue and win-win outcomes
Whether you’re leading a project team, managing stakeholders, or collaborating across functions, this workshop will strengthen your ability to lead through conflict with clarity and purpose.
