Resolve Conflicts with Effective Problem Solving – HR Meeting January 11
Most people do not like conflicts. Attendees of the monthly meeting of JSAHR (The Jersey Shore Association for Human Resources), open to the public, will learn the skills of effective conflict management Thursday, January 11, 2018, from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m., at the Jumping Brook Country Club, 210 Jumping Brook Road, Neptune, N.J.
The workshop, based on the principles of the “Win-Win” process popularized by the Harvard Negotiation Project, will help attendees resolve differences and disputes in a constructive way, and gain skills that can be used immediately in a variety of disagreements and conflicts between individuals, and among departments and organizations.
The registration fee, including a full buffet breakfast, is $30.00 for JSAHR members; $40.00 for nonmembers; $25.00 for guests and those in-transition, and $10.00 for full-time students. Sponsorship for this meeting is still available.
