Abstract/Contents:Discusses conflict resolution practices for golf course crews. Lists potential reasons that conflict among workers negatively affects the workplace, including impacts on members, work output, and employee retention. Provides recommendations in detail, including: "develop listening skills," "practice patience," "define the real problem," "keep focused," "discern perspectives," and "cut your losses." Emphasizes the potential importance of effective listening techniques, and states that "keeping everyone focused on the problem rather than feelings, and working step by step to create solutions that everyone can most easily agree on, creates a more collaborative atmosphere before tackling the most contentious issues."
