September 1992 Disagreements happen every day. We feel the effects of conflict often. Whether at home or at work, an individual's needs, values and opinions are different from those of other people.
Some conflicts are minor and easy to handle.
Usually a disagreement is not resolved until we take charge and deal with it. A leader is often needed to overcome the emotions involved in a conflict. Any individual in the group can provide that leadership, so it's helpful for all members to learn how to cope with conflict to be healthier, happier and more effective in groups. We disagree with others regularly. When disagreements build, conflict occurs.
