    Fresh Start Presents - Empowering Businesses with Fresh Start Corporate Solutions

    Welcome to the latest episode of the Fresh Start Podcast! Today, we’re spotlighting our corporate conflict resolution services and the transformative Full Conflict Diagnosis tool. Designed for workplaces, this tool helps businesses identify, analyze, and resolve conflicts effectively, turning challenges into opportunities for growth. The Full Conflict Diagnosis provides a structured, four-part approach: Recognizing Conflict: Distinguish between minor issues and deeper conflicts using behavioral and impact indicators, such as frequent disagreements or work disruptions. Confirming Conflict: Identify opposing interests and actions causing tension, ensuring a focused resolution strategy. Analyzing Styles and Impacts: Understand conflict styles and evaluate positive outcomes (like innovation) versus negatives (such as burnout). Diagnosing and Resolving: Pinpoint conflict types—relationship, task, or process—and levels (interpersonal to organizational), tailoring solutions to the root causes. Andrea Richards, and I, can guide businesses through this process, fostering collaboration, enhancing team cohesion, and boosting productivity. By addressing conflict strategically, organizations can reduce costs, improve morale, and drive innovation.

    Fresh Start Presents - Conflict Resolution Day Committee 2024

    Fresh Start had the pleasure to sit down with the entire Conflict Resolution Day Committee to discuss their upcoming *FREE* online training titled Conflict: The Roadmap to Peace. For more information, please go to http://www.conflictresolutionday.ca/ and register for the Train the Trainer workshop, or the FREE event by emailing  info@conflictresolutionday.ca  As a reminder, the Conflict Resolution Day Alberta Committee is a collaboration between the Alberta Government’s Dispute Resolution Network and ADR (Appropriate Dispute Resolution) organizations from all over the province. They provide resources and support to ADR professionals and organizations across Alberta to host events and activities to celebrate Conflict Resolution Day every October. Their goal is to get Albertans talking about their options to work through conflict in a positive and productive way. ADR sometimes stands for Appropriate Dispute Resolution because it describes options other than going to court, but as ADR has become mainstream we use the term Appropriate Dispute Resolution to describe all the choices available to prevent and manage conflict in a non-adversarial way, including mediation, arbitration, and restorative practices.

    Fresh Start Podcast Series - Reconciliation - Special Guest - Anjan Jawandha

    When a conflict ends, reconciliation does not necessarily follow. if you meet your needs and your partner is going away empty-handed means that your partner does not have closure, and so the conflict continues. Perhaps it will be about the same issue, perhaps a different one. With a bit of effort, you are probably able to trace back your current disagreement to a much, much older one. Leading challenging conversations is about facing your discomfort and dedicating yourself to the conversation that needs to happen. You’ve learned to identify issues that require a conversation and to self-check how to approach them. You have gone through a process that shows intent, It requires continuous practice, but you now have more tools, and with time you can now survive any conflict with your dignity intact.

    Fresh Start Podcast Series - The Apology - Special Guest - Nancy Payne

    Taking responsibility is perhaps the hardest thing to do. That is because it requires you to empathize with the other person. Acknowledging that you may have done something that impacted somebody else in a negative way implies a negative intent and challenges our sense that we are well-meaning rational beings.  Describing how the act affected the other person negatively generates trust and credibility. It makes it clear that you are looking at the situation from the perspective of the other person. Offering restitution indicates your willingness to repair the relationship.

    Fresh Start Podcast Series - Listening with Intent - Special Guest - Nancy Payne

    During an argument we want our partner to listen to us, whereas closeness with our partner is greatest when we listen to them. By simply being inquisitive about our partner, we create a deeper, more meaningful conversation. In a disagreement, we need a better understanding of what motivates our partner to believe that their solution resolution to a problem is better than ours. By doing so, we can be more creative in how we meet our needs and the needs of our partner.
