The Building Collaborative Workplaces Course and Conference was created to work with organizations
experiencing everyday conflicts — those that haven’t reached a stage of crisis.
The program focuses on conflict prevention and building understanding and agreement,
rather than on resolving high-level conflict.
The FREE resources below are available to everyone and were designed to support those looking to
improve their conflict resolution style, gauge the level of conflict in their workplace,
and those who would like to take steps to create and strengthen a collaborative culture.

Conference Reflection Worksheet
Sit down with your team to reflect on your conference take-aways,
giving each team member a turn to share their reflections.
One of the three key learnings I’ve had in my twenty-four years as a mediator and conflict coach
is that good relationships equal good solutions.
There’s a common belief that people don’t quit jobs, they quit managers.
But studies show that what people more often quit is organizational cultures
that aren’t consistent with their needs and values.
One of the foundational steps we can take to build collaborative workplaces
is to create policies and practices that support the health of individual team members.
My top tip for conflict prevention is getting really clear on expectations
and how you want to work together before there’s conflict.

Guide to Workplace Harassment Regulations
To assist in ensuring the health and safety of workers, the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHS Act)
