Positive Relationships

The heartbeat of all business success

Conflict Analysis

The problems leading to workplace conflicts are usually complex and complicated factors can hide the real issues. Many organisations attempt to manage conflict without implementing sufficient analysis or process, often exacerbating matters rather than resolving them.Â

Bringing in a conflict specialist can make a massive difference. I can help you cut through the confusion and chaos to understand what really drives disputes, undermines leadership and contributes to increased business costs.Â

The Conflict Confidence Method™  will help you cut through the confusion and chaos with a detailed report outlining: ÂÂ

  • A clear framework to analyse and interpret complex situationsÂÂ
  • An assessment profile highlighting the priorities for your focus and action to lead positive change.ÂÂ
  • Practical, effective strategies and the timeframe to implement.ÂÂ
  • Recommendations for the way forward and a consolidation plan to continue building  better relationships.ÂÂ
As our small community organisation began to grow and evolve, recurring issues began to arise internally, and I struggled to identify the cause. Elizabeth was able to talk to each of our staff and board members, one on one, and ask the right questions to reveal the underlying cause.

She then provided a detailed report that came with practical steps to help us address growth and improve communication. I found Elizabeth to be empathetic and practical, and the staff felt comfortable opening up to her

Elizabeth’s coaching quickly got to the heart of problems with our customer communication strategy to reduce risks of customer complaints.

Elizabeth clarified how to approach customer expectations and see their perspectives to support our business expansion goals. I was impressed at her insights into developing consistent high quality customer relationships as we bring on board new staff.
