About This Course

Workplace conflict is inevitable - but the cost of leaving it unaddressed is not. This practical one-day course equips managers, leaders, and HR professionals with the skills to step in early, handle tension constructively, and resolve issues before they escalate into formal disputes or wider team disruption.

Through real-world scenarios, guided exercises, and proven conflict resolution techniques, you’ll learn how to de-escalate situations, communicate clearly under pressure, and address the root causes of conflict with confidence. The focus is entirely practical: giving you tools, language, and approaches you can apply immediately to protect performance, strengthen relationships, and keep work moving forward.

Frequently asked questions

Who is this course for?

Team leaders, managers, and HR professionals who are dealing with conflict right now or managing teams where it keeps coming up. If there's a situation you're not sure how to handle without making it worse, this is the right starting point. 

Do I need any previous training or experience in conflict resolution?

Not at all. This course works whether you're completely new to managing conflict or you've been dealing with it for years and want a proper framework behind your instincts. 

Is one day really enough to make a difference?

For most people, yes — because this course is built entirely around practical tools you can use immediately, not broad theory. You'll leave knowing specifically what to do differently when conflict surfaces, not just that you should handle it better. 

Is it CPD accredited?

Yes. The course carries CPD accreditation, so it counts towards your professional development record. 

Can this be delivered in-house for our team or organisation?

Absolutely. This is one of our most popular programmes for in-house delivery — we can tailor it to your sector, your scenarios, and your team's specific challenges. Get in touch to talk through what that would look like.
