The Omnia Insights #3
👉 Team Unity in Remote Teams, Managing Conflict, Back to Work?
Conflict is baked into our DNA.
An Emtrain study finds 29% of employees surveyed – almost one in three – have left jobs due to “workplace conflict”. While there’s no perfect formula for building healthy, resilient cultures, it’s essential to address any disagreements before they go sideways with potentially devastating consequences on team morale and productivity.
As our fractured country celebrated another year of independence while attempting to heal from the recent events, it’s more important than ever to have open conversations about conflicts. Disagreements are inevitable, especially while teams work closely together on a day-to-day basis.
Most of us avoid talking about conflicts, thinking we are “keeping the peace”. Unfortunately, avoiding conflicts creates unintended consequences. In our conversations with organizations, we’ve found that many managers believe they lack the skills to have difficult conversations.
On that note, in this issue, we show you how you can effectively manage conflicts among remote teams, improve your hiring process with behavioral assessments, pump up your coaching program with employee assessments, and even coach your employees to achieve greater career success by changing their behavior styles! Through insights-based assessments, workshops, and webinars, our experts help organizations navigate these conversations and build unity through effective conflict resolutions.
So, dive in, and we’ll see you next month!
Conflict Resolution for Remote Teams
When you think about conflict, you probably picture two (or more) employees disagreeing face-to-face in a meeting or common space at the office. But it doesn’t work that way virtually. While remote communication is healthier for some employees, some have a higher level of insecurity, and virtual environments sometimes empower people to be harsh. Take a look at the seven steps to address this.
Improve Your Interview ProcessÂ
The most successful organizations periodically audit and amend their business procedures for both compliance and effectiveness. By doing so, firms continuously improve their operations and retain a competitive edge. However, these audits often overlook one critical area: the interview and hiring process.
Pump Up Your Coaching ProgramÂ
As a leader, you’re invested in the growth and development of your team. You know that properly coached employees can achieve your company’s lofty goals and be more engaged while doing so. But — did you know that your coaching efforts could fall flat if you don’t have the right insight about your team members?
Can You Coach Your Employee to Change Their Personality?
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could change our personalities at will? We could reduce conflict, increase communication, and improve productivity with little effort, in this magical scenario.
