Many departments and agencies have experienced excellent results with ADR options such as mediation. ADR is an important and useful option for resolving disputes. ADR alone is not a ‘conflict management system’. ADR processes help to resolve disputes on a case-by-case basis. A conflict management system embraces ADR and goes well beyond. Its focus is on organizational change, the roots of conflict, building internal capacity so that destructive conflict is prevented, building accountability for responsible early interventions and better management of the conflict spectrum. A well designed and implemented system improves labour/management relationships, employee morale and retention, customer/client satisfaction, productivity; and saves money and energies.
An updated dispute resolution structure that offers choices from modern ADR options alongside rights-based options; and
Organizational support that fosters a culture of conflict competence
