Sometimes, you’re not helping or just stalling the progression. Just step aside, give an idea or two and move on. A step forward is better than not moving at all.

In my FFA team, we were debating on what we should do for a large task we were assigned to. We ended up clashing and while we finished the task, it destroyed our team dynamic. We are still together as a team and have been struggling ever since because one person is holding a grudge of everything that happened even though they were the main person to start the whole conflict. Overall, it reduced our productivity and made us non-cohesive

My roommates always fight over the heat in our house. One turns it on, and the other will immediately turn it off. The problem is still being resolved through being petty

Memes are pretty good ways to diffuse conflict. I was at a foundation meeting and its a bunch old people not knowing parliamentary procedure and starting to yell at each other. So i told em jokes and showed em memes on recess. But yeah. I think it worked.

The conflict involved coworkers blatantly not fulfilling their tasks, nor did they care. When confronted by our superior, they were open about not caring about anyone's opinion/stance. Even though they were fired, that didn't necessarily help the team dynamic. Their positions weren't rehired, rather the duties were delegated to the rest of us. It was conflict that wasn't resolved efficiently, and hurt the group performance.

Had conflict with housemates on recycling due to different levels of commitment. Was not resolved but rather swept under the rug as something we do not talk about. Created a rift in the group relationship.

i had terrible group partners that did not take data collection for a project. So i did the work and ignored them for the rest of my life.

I once had a team that would argue about wanting different grades and having higher standards than others. When people are being asked to do more than they wanted, it had a negative effect and they did less.

It shook the leadership of the team and created a negative atmosphere in what would otherwise be a fun group get together.

I continuously have issues with leadership in a club I'm involved with not following through with responsibilities. We are all friend's but the club has become something stressful to discuss at times because I am always having to hold them accountable and it's uncomfortable for our relationship.  It is an ongoing issue that I'm hoping to help build skills to help resolve while in this class.

We had the worst chemistry on my volleyball team because we lost a good match that we “should have won”. We didn’t hold each other accountable. For the rest of the season we never talked about the conflict or our issues and we lost the rest of our games :))

It put a strain in our group dynamic and productivity. The conflict was resolved through communication and group discussion.

Many people were on high stress for a few weeks and the consequences for those who got “caught” were ambiguous. Productivity went down at first, because there was a loss of trust between teammates and commitment, but eventually we got stronger as a team because we supported each other in a really tough time. Those who got caught “served their time” and jumped right back in when they were eligible to participate again.

In my FFA chapter, we were trying to figure out how to split the money we raised that year between buying farm equipment or funding scholarships for students and it immediately split the group in half. It took a lot of discussion and voting using parliamentary procedure, and we eventually decided on a split of the money, rather than putting it all towards 1 thing.

The first group conflict is that I told me group member that pick up a topic and do it by yourself, then we put together. I even yell them. Wh I do that because I thought they are hard to finish our project, and I don’t want to spend too much time on them. Finally, my professor told me that you should do something for your team and make it better, which is part of my life I  have to learn that work in a group.

I was part of a service group through my jigh school. There was conflict in how people were not doing their part, and some people were cut from the group as a consequence

One team member read the book and the others didn’t own the book (I was one of them). The one team member carried all of us through the first couple weeks of a intense 3 week group assignment. Eventually we got it together, but it took awhile.

I was part of a team that lacked commitment because our shared vision was not clearly defined. Only one person really wanted to achieve the goal of the team, and they ended up doing all of the work... the conflict was not resolved and it turned into a one person team.

Experiencing conflict in a team brings down the team productivity because people are frustrated with each other and may not be willing to work together. Once you work through it though you have the opportunity to learn from the experience. Often after the conflict has been resolved a group can work better together because they have a better understanding of each other and how to work as one.

conflict: what roles were in charge of making certain decisions. one member believed it was under her department and should follow her vision, whilst the other member knew that it was actually a shared decision to make, although the other girl was not open to sharing opinions and making a joint decision, thus shutting down every idea proposed by the other. thus, there was little compromise and a large amount of unsatisfying submission.

There were two teammates on my team who had conflict between eachother. The productivity of the team was so low that anytime we met nothing was achieved and a negative environment was made, nobody wanted to show up to the meetings and nobody wanted to be around them. It was finally resolved when my FFA advisors stepped in and talked to them privately and helped resolve the conflict.

I was on a smaller team that worked closely together and spent a lot of time together. During one of our many conflicts, team productivity came to a crawl. We had to hash things out and reform. Team dynamics changed dramatically. The issue was eventually resolved but took a while. It ended up taking 2 or 3 months for us to get back to the “norming” stage but we did get there.

On a group project there were a couple of group members who had very different opinions about an idea one of them came up with. Neither one wanted to hear the other out so it made team meetings very challenging and gave the other group members more work. It negatively affected productivity as well as the commitment of the other group members. The conflict was resolved finally when the other group members and I mediated and basically forced them to listen and talk to each other

It sent productivity to a screeching halt and two people we subsequently fired. 🔥

One time I was at work and I work at a coffee shop. It was during a football game so the line was out the door and we were trying to bust out drinks as fast as humanly possible. A co worker was beginning to feel stressed and started to be rude to customers. This consisted of being very short with them and not being super kind. I diffused the situation by going up to then and saying, “hey I’m feelin pretty good, do you want me to jump on register to take orders and you can make the drinks?” So then they did not have to interact with the customer.
This was diffused well because it swapped out the person before there was major conflict at hand.

I experienced team conflict during a group writing project. It reduced productivity, didn’t affect commitment, and ruined the group dynamics. The conflict never resolved and I ended up doing most of the project myself.

I yelled at them. Because it was a responsibility of theirs. They showed up and did their work. Mustve worked.

Team officer was very difficult to work with and argumentative on every subject. We solved it be first trying to work with her and express our concerns, when this did not work we told her that if she did not resign she would probably be removed from the team. She resigned.

We had a coworker who struggled with new employees and would be really hard on them. There was a lot of toxic behavior with this person like talking behind people’s back, complaining about them, making passive aggressive comments, and so on. No one spoke up about it because they were scared to be seen as “tattling” so it escalated. Once someone finally spoke up, this person was talked to by management and the behavior has started to change due to the coaching switch. When they finally got some tough love, things improved. It created a negative work environment and people didn’t like working with that person.

My high school Ag teacher had a family disaster and we were left without an advisor at the beginning of the year. We were a  new officer team and we were struggling to work cohesively without our advisor being present. The team started to not communicate and the lack of commitment turned into the same few people doing everything for the team and the chapter. These issues caused the dynamic of the team to change and eventually pre-existing friendships were harmed.

When I worked at a restaurant, a coworker was constantly showing up 15-30 minutes late and it began to throw off the whole function of the day. It made more than other workers mad, it also affected customer experience. She would come in and act like nothing was a problem even though the manager had talked to her several times about her tardiness. Finally she was let go and the rest of the staff took up the slack.

In one group that I have been apart of the conflict at hand divided the group as a whole. It wasn’t until that person left that others began to realize that there was tension between the groups of individuals that caused the whole group to be dysfunctional.

A few years ago I was on a officer team and a team member wasn’t showing up. He was telling his friends he was thinking of quitting but never once came and talk to the other member or our supervisor. He held an important role and this cause us to be set back in putting on events. This cause the team to start to get angry with each other seeing as I was the leader I had to try and reach out to him. He never responded to me and the other team members got angry with me it was really hard to do anything for a while because of this strain in our relationship as a team. He ended up talking with our supervisor and quitting he never talked to the member on the team again. We still aren’t sure if it was something we did or what happened.
