following are some Implications for Managing Conflict effectively:

The levels of trust or distrust

will shape significantly any emergent conflict dynamics.

Trust is often the first casualty in conflict.

 

When conflict occurs, the foundation of trust breaks down and both sides may become defensive.

 

Relationships characterized by distrust are likely to be conflict laden,

 

 

Negative expectations can become negative self-fulfilling prophecies,

which feeds further distrust.

which often lead the conflict into greater intensity and hurtfulness.

 

 

Yet, it is even more crucial for them to build common goals and values,

thereby increasing their investment in one another.

 

 

It is important for parties to develop

a level of trust that enables them to work together.

 

It is possible to repair trust through relationship work.

 

Authentic trust repair is often the starting point

for effective conflict resolution.
