Conflict is an inevitable part of life. Conflict signals a need for change.
Conflict can be positive and productive.
If people express their feelings and needs in a positive and constructive way, it reduces anxiety and prevents escalation of conflict. The answer depends on how it is handled. Conflict in teams is not only inevitable, it can be healthy as well. It can be a way of resolving differences and responding to issues that are causing friction between group members. Conflict can bring on innovation and direct the group in ways that members would not have anticipated earlier.
