SUMMARY:FREE Webinar: When Conflict Reaches HR: Understanding Escalation\, Power\, and What Works
DESCRIPTION:Workplace conflict rarely reaches HR early or in a simple form. It shows up late\, emotionally charged\, and shaped by fear\, power\, and organisational dynamics.

Participants will learn how conflict evolves over time\, why familiar approaches work in some situations and fail in others\, and how HR’s early responses can stabilise or intensify escalation.
