There are 3 causes of conflict:
1. Task conflict: It is the conflict over content and goals of work. Low and moderate levels of task conflict consistently has a positive effect on the group performance because it results a discussion of ideas that help the group to perform better. Hence low and moderate levels of task conflicts are functional conflicts.
2. Relationship conflict: It is conflict over interpersonal relationship. Relationship conflicts increases dashes and decreases mutual understanding. This reduces organizational performance. Hence it is a dysfunctional conflict.
3. Process conflict: Conflict over how to get work done is called process conflict. Low levels of process conflict are functional. Too much argument about how to do a work will only increase the time taken to do the task.
There are a number of conflict resolution techniques. They are:
1. Problem solving: This includes face-to-face meeting of the conflicting parties for the purpose of identifying the problem and resolving it through open discussion.
2. Super ordinate goals: This includes allotting a shared goal to both the conflicting parties which cannot be attained with cooperation of each of the conflicting parties.
3. Expansion of resources: When conflict is caused by scarcity of resources, like money, promotion, opportunities office space, it can be resolved by expanding the resources.
4. Avoidance: It is only a temporary solution to a conflict. It includes withdrawal from the conflict or supervision of the conflict.
5. Smoothing: It includes reducing the difference between the conflicting parties and emphasizing common interests between them.
6. Compromise: It includes giving up something of value by each party.
7. Authoritative: It is method; management uses its authority to resolve the conflict.
8. Altering human variables: This uses human relations training to alter the attitudes and behaviors that cause conflict.
9. Altering structural variables: It includes changing the organizational structure and interactional patters through transfers, job redesign etc.
