Dealing with conflict at the top

Disagreement and vigorous debate should always be a part of what goes on at the top of growing and developing organisations. The real value of this work is in how it is handled.

A common cause of confusion arises when people mistake their personal agenda for that of the organisation. It is understandable why this happens. Part of the commitment and dedication to work is all about leaving some of self behind. However, it can sometimes feel that the organisation and its demands are actually taking over ones life. Nonetheless, whoever we are, we all serve the organisation. Without the organisation, none of us would be in work.

In the final analysis, all we have to do is to discuss and debate, but to finally agree how to allocate time, energy and money in the best interests of the organisation.

One organisation; one Bull’s Eye.
