Conversely, after we enter the workplace, we not only have workplace stressors, but also work overload. Therefore, we cannot use the same attitude to deal with work problems; we must know how to handle conflicts with superiors, subordinates and peers. Broadly speaking, the middle levels of interpersonal conflicts are received as a sign of a healthy and vibrant work culture.

Throughout this paper, we will realize more about interrelationships with role stress, emotional exhaustion, job attitude, working smart, job performance, and turnover intentions. Different people use the different ways to resolve the conflicts. As a result, interpersonal conflict is a powerful feature in companies. Therefore, my research paper shows the cause of interpersonal conflicts at the workplace, and then how we handle this problem.
