Introduction Conflict Defined It is a process which begins when one party perceives that another party has negatively affected, or is about to negatively affects, something that the first party cares about. Two main Schools of Thought * Traditional View A Belief that all conflicts are harmful and should be avoided. * Human Relations View Belief that conflict is natural and an inevitable outcome in any group. It is not only a positive force but is also necessary for a group to perform well.

They can be broadly classified as: i. Communication * Semantic difficulties, misunderstandings, and “noise” *
