Conflict Management in the Workplace
Psychology, 2022

Wh... more Conflict is a component of interpersonal interactions, and therefore natural in the workplace. While neither inevitable nor intrinsically bad, conflict is commonplace. Conflicts may arise in different forms, exist between and among different levels of the organizational hierarchy, and involve supervisors, peers, or subordinates, as well as customers, clients, suppliers, and other stakeholders. The central idea of conflict management is that organizations can improve in the way conflict is managed by accepting conflict as part of organizational dynamics and by learning to deal with it effectively and efficiently. Given the ubiquity of conflict, it is perhaps unsurprising that the study of its management and resolution has become a popular topic in the last decades, particularly in the fields of management, human resources, and psychology. The aim of this article is to cover current topics in the area of conflict management in the workplace. To do so, the article is divided into diffe...

Previous research has focused on safeguarding children and minimizing the effects of trauma. The intent was to determine the underlying factors that contribute to an adult's perception and worldview in relationship to childhood traumatic experiences. Participants were adult men and women who self-reported traumatization in childhood. The core of the research was a semiguided interview protocol. The research used three supporting questionnaires as a basis for demographics. The research anticipates clarification between the effects of childhood trauma and the plausibility that the trauma may be a source of difficulty for adults, therefore perpetuating one's life struggles or being a source of inspiration to move forward. It was discovered that those children who possessed the factors that reinforce resiliency tended to have a more positive perception and worldview.

Example 3 By: Asa Don Brown, Ph.D.
As a reader, I have had immense pleasure in reviewing Dr. Daniel Briggs’ latest book, The Origins of Morality. Dr. Briggs’ work will cause some to feel exasperated, while without a doubt
have others comfortable with his perspective on life. The perspectives in this book will have you intellectually chomping at the bit. Having been academically trained in theology, religion, counseling, as well as, psychology; there were many
moments in my review that I either wholeheartedly agreed, respectfully disagreed, or desired to have a lively discussion with Dr. Briggs. It is without a doubt that Dr. Briggs offers many
compelling arguments throughout the breadth of his work.
Whether you interpret the earth’s origination to be from a scripted Big Bang, an Intelligent Design, a Theist Evolution, or some Spiritually Cosmic event; the causation of the human race or the evolution of the human race, is complex indeed.
The teaching herein is fortified by a wealth of Biblical Scriptures and references, scientific arguments and laws, humanistic quandaries and perspectives, and a string of academic
conundrums. As a spiritual thinker and believer, as well as, an academically trained professional; I flip a cognitive coin while reading Dr. Briggs’ take on life, theology, science, and the
conception of human life. I have no doubt that you will find yourself on the edge of your chair debating many of the
arguments herein. It is a prolific take on life, the scientific community, and the spiritual journey.
