Conflict is unavoidable whenever individuals or group of individuals congregate. Thus, it is inevitable that conflict would occur when people work together. However, conflict is often viewed in a negative connotation. But if we were to take a different perspective, we can view conflict as a necessary step needed to achieve unity or a consensus position. Conflict can be viewed as a process whereby parties table different arguments and viewpoints to achieve a meeting of the minds. Conflict management requires the joint cooperation to achieve an optimal outcome for all parties. Therefore, if conflict exists in a manageable level, it can lead to creative and positive change for the organization.

For directors, conflict oftentimes occurs in the context of the boardroom. It is important that directors gain an understanding of the source of conflict and measures to resolve them. Be they mediation measures or means to prevent conflicts from even happening in the first place. These are all important issues for directors to grasp so that conflicts can be appropriately managed and the risks to the organization can be minimized.

IOD, seeing the importance of boardroom conflict management, thus organize this Directors Forum to cover the topic “Managing Conflicts in the Boardroom” on 23 August 2016, 09.00-12.00 hrs. at Ballroom 1, Grand Hyatt Erawan Hotel.
