Each month, Magellan Health Services focuses on a new topic to provide resources and opportunities for SMU’s employees to learn ways to build skill on work-life topics.Â
This month’s topic is workplace conflict. While many people would rather not deal with conflice, avoiding it usually encourages the sitaution to take on a life of its own. In the meantime, teamwork, communication, productivity, and trust erode.Â
 Communication is the key to resolving conflict. Access Magellan’s Your Source: Living Healthy – Working Well newsletter for more tips on how to communicate more effectively in order to reduce worplace conflict.Â
