Conflict of Opinion When trying to resolve a conflict of opinion you really have to kind of take a back seat and understand that it is an opinion and not fact you are trying to resolve. First you have to take into account at what the topic is because that is going to be the most important aspect. After the topic is discussed and everyone voices their opinion we need to figure out why people are disagreeing with the outcome of the discussion. What I mean by this is, you have to look at people’s background on why they are disagreeing on the topic at hand. Could it be because one person knows more about the subject at hand? Maybe someone has previous experience in this field or topic. What you need to establish from the start is a team leader, someone that has the experience and expertise can resolve any conflicting issues that might arise. The important thing here is as team leader team leader of the group you have to be able to disagree with people if you feel it is important to the outcome of the decision. Don’t worry about hurting people’s feelings in a situation like this, but you might want to point out to people that it isn’t a personal attack, although as a professional they should already realize this. You should try and think logically at what the argument is about and try and decided which the better course of action is. [Your entire paper should be double-spaced. It changes here from double-spaced to one-and-a-half spaces.] Why teams? In many cases such as team sports, the rules of the game dictate that individuals with varying skill sets are necessary to achieve victory. On the surface this would not intuitively seem to apply in a business setting. All businesses exist for a single purpose; [Use a dash, not a semicolon, here.] to make money. Certainly there may be some altruistic service that can be tied to a business’ output; however, a social [socially] conscious business would not stay in business [Word choice… Avoid using the same word repeatedly.] long if they did not make money. Furthermore, publicly owned corporations do not attract investors unless performance suggests the likelihood of future growth to make the company’s stock more valuable. Businesses traditionally were process [Hyphenate these two words. (42)] oriented. These processes could have included production, marketing, finance, et al. These processes usually divided [use “separated”?] a company into divisions. Divisions usually consisted of a manager that made decisions based on relevant data and those beneath [use “subordinate”?] who carried out management policy. Business has now recognized that forming teams consisting of multi-functional members can improve productivity. A baseball team is analogous to this concept. A team comprised full of defensive specialists would not likely win the World Series. Their trophy case full of Gold Glove Awards would be a small consolation for continually not succeeding [don’t worry about political correctness here—just use the words “failing to reach”.] in their team goal of winning a championship. There must be a balance between hitting, fielding and pitching to have team success. Likewise businesses have found that forming multi-functional teams to openly communicate current processes can lead to a dialogue that can help overall production.
