Conflict, when mismanaged, destroys.

Conflict is very much a state of mind. If you're not in that state of mind, it doesn't bother you.

When you have a conflict, that means that there are truths that have to be addressed on each side of the conflict. And when you have a conflict, then it's an educational process to try to resolve the conflict. And to resolve that, you have to get people on both sides of the conflict involved so that they can dialogue.

If you want to bring an end to long-standing conflict, you have to be prepared to compromise.

A man's conflicts represent what he 'really' is.

Conflict is drama, and how people deal with conflict shows you the kind of people they are.

You never want conflict. But sometimes conflict is inevitable.

While exceptional employees don't seek conflict, they don't run away from it either. They're able to maintain their composure while presenting their positions calmly and logically. They're able to withstand personal attacks in pursuit of the greater goal and never use that tactic themselves.

You can educate people on how to preempt their own conflict.

I think that internal conflict works very well, because, after all, all the best drama is fuelled by conflict.
