Conflict Research

A growing body of research is focusing on effective conflict management skills and their relationship to leadership. We will present links to new research findings on this page.

• Leadership Effectiveness Study
  There's a strong link between a person's ability to resolve conflict effectively and his or her perceived effectiveness as a leader-and therefore, his or her likelihood of promotion.
• Leadership and Conflict - Correlations between the Conflict Dynamics Profile and the Leadership Effectiveness Analysis (LEA)
  Leadership has been extensively investigated from a variety of viewpoints. Depending on which theoretical perspective one takes, it may be studied in terms of the attributes of a person, the attributes of the situation, or both interacting with each other.
• Conflict Survey
  A recent survey by the Leadership Development Institute (LDI) at Eckerd College has found that managers spend a substantial amount of time dealing with conflict.
