Conscious Conflict Management

Share

Live Webinar – March 12th 2013, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT
Duration: 1 hour 1 PDU / 1 CDU Credits: 1 PDU Cat B – Free PDU
Hosted By: Systemation

Note: You may have to click the “Public Sessions” tab on the top of the page for this opportunity to appear.

It is inevitable in work as it is with many aspects of life that conflict will happen whether we like it to or not.

Being that conflict is not preventable, we must therefore make a conscious effort to manage conflict to build better relationships, mitigate risks and develop more creative solutions.

Conflict has a place in every business and when it is no longer seen as negative, but an opportunity for change, then everyone wins.

Innovation and creativity are business bingo words for sure. Even though they conjure up visions of verbose, empty-suite executives clamoring on and on, they are still critical. At the end of the day, your business grows by entering new markets, adding new products and reacting to changes that impact your products or customers. All which are empowered and amplified by innovation and creativity.

A product portfolio is like a well. The deeper you have to go to find interested customers, the more expensive it gets, and the more work you have to put in to getting business. So if you can find new products or quickly locate new customers, you continue to get the “richness” of margin and easy customers from the beginning stages of the well.

This session pulls information from multiple sources including, The Difference by Scott Page, Wisdom of Crowds by Jim Surdoweiki, Innovation at the Verge by Joel Barker, Product Management Strategy by Rebecca Henderson, The Agile Manifesto and the Edison Product Factory to provide pragmatic models and interesting new ways to help you find new products or customers through innovation and creativity.

Presentation Agenda:

  • Innovation and product development theory
  • Moving from theory to reality
  • Identity vs. cognitive diversity
  • Team dysfunctions
  • Agile Manifesto tied to innovation and creativity
  • The Verge and how to embrace change
  • Testing multiple small ideas
  • Putting it all together
