Today we're exploring one of the recent surveys on the future of work and trends shaping 2024 by team Gartner led by Emily Rose McRae, Gartner Senior Director Analyst.
2024 brings another wave of challenges and opportunities for the #futureofwork. Organisations face unprecedented uncertainty with global talent shortages and the mandate to control rising costs and measure risky technology’s #productivity returns.
A very insightful trend is related to new #team #managers necessities as employee conflict resolution is the next must-have #skill for #managers.
"With upcoming elections, geopolitical crises, labor strikes, climate change and pushback to DEI efforts, the environment is ripe for differences of opinion. #Managers who #manage, rather than silence, interpersonal conflict among employees will have an outsize positive impact on their #organisations."
Gartner found that 57% of managers say they are fully responsible for managing conflicts for their direct reports. Managers who can effectively navigate and manage interpersonal conflict among employees, both overt and covert, will have an outsize positive impact on their organisations.
Successfully navigating a polarizing work environment that requires managers to be increasingly adept at conflict resolution presents a major challenge for many organizations. Organizations that have tried to avoid contentious topics may start this process behind the curve, particularly as conflict resolution is not an intuitive skill. To help managers approach situations with empathy, organizations should consider incorporating dedicated conflict management trainings, creating shadowing and coaching opportunities for new managers to see how experienced leaders resolve employee conflicts, and finding ways to recognize and reward effective conflict resolution at all levels of the organization.
theCoRD is the perfect solution for managers of 2024. It dissolves pain points in team dynamics and teams achieve swift efficiency and growth.
