Explain how conflict might arise within a group setting - provide 2 examples, and suggest ways of overcoming these.

        Differences are no doubt present when a group has various diligent and passionate workers collaborating with each other. Sometimes, the roles are not suited to members and the other times, group members are not fit for the goal. When such a conflict arises, it is the leader’s job to ensure that conflicts are mitigated and goals are pursued in a single agile direction.

        Conflict sometimes arises when there are three or four strong positions in a single group. When the perspectives of members are not paid any attention to then conflict over opinion or position arises. For instance; If only one person is deciding along with the leader, it will not settle down with other members. For instance: If some members are communicating while others are not getting the ideas and concepts, it might lead to inefficient outcome. Therefore, the leader will have to consult such shy members as well.

Example 1: Group A has five members and only one seems to work with efficiency as the leader requires. Meanwhile, the other four members seem to avoid the first member. Due to it, communication is strained.

Solution: The leader must consult the other members and make sure that their thoughts are properly paid attention to. It will repair the communication among team members.

Example 2: Group B has five members and three members constantly are making mistakes and unable to produce the required outcome. They are not taking assistance from other members as well. Overall, the team is falling.

Solution: Again, the leader will have to use leadership skills and make sure that the team walks together without differences. Ideas should be communicated and a single direction should be discovered.
