Workplace Conflict Resolution Required When Differences Transform Into Conflict
Here we are in the 21st. Century, a supposedly enlightened race who accept one another's differences and uniqueness - biological, temperamental, ethnic, etc. with open arms. And yet we see that around the world these very differences - those things about each of us that create such a richness and that should unite us into a more complete whole - are still being transformed into conflict and confrontation.
Rather than addressing the need for global conflict resolution - we are all aware of that if we have a television or read anything about what's going on in every corner of the world, I suggest we start closer to home. Workplace conflict resolution can be a do it yourself process whose effects are often felt far beyond the workplace.
Think about the results of a process dedicated to managing the differences between the people in your organization. Those whose behavior and attitude is changed will carry their new mindset forward into their homes, places of worship, and their communities at large. Leaders outside your organization they come in contact with will see the obvious benefits of having more productive relationships through cooperation and they will take this "new" idea to an even wider, and wider, and wider universe of people.
So how can you transform your environment? Before any change can take place we must first recognize that there is a reason, an atmosphere, a problem worth spending the time doing something about. Just because something does not appear to be broken doesn't mean it is operating ay 100%.
Every workplace that is made up of more than one person has employees with different personality styles, differing self-interests, and a set of priorities that are not the same as their colleagues or you. It is also likely that there are those with values different from you, whose cultural norms are not like yours and whose gender is different.
Over time this rich mix of people establishes, in the minds of everyone - the corporate culture, one that identifies who you are as an organization. In many competitive industries customers, when asked why they chose one vendor over another, said it was because they felt comfortable doing business with them. In other words they resonated with who your organization is - the person it looks like in the eyes of that customer.
That's the good news. The bad news is that since the corporate culture was created by the passing of time and the coalescing of personalities and other characteristics, all by osmosis - there is no manual, no control panel where you can flip a switch to correct communications problems that may derail the company's progress.
As new people join the organization they bring their own persona to be added to the mix. Often miscommunications and misunderstandings result simply because they don't yet understand the culture. Stereotyping of these new hires, based on prejudices and experiences of your existing employees may be the result. Or as the new hires attempt to 'fit in" they may make comments which, like those made by the veteran employees - result in some level of conflict.
Not conflict in a guns blazing scorched earth sense - rather a creeping, discomforting, costly fog that will seep into every pore in the corporate culture unless stopped.
The types of conflict I refer to are tension that makes cooperation difficult, distrust resulting in the instant internal dialogue "what did she mean by that" rather than taking the communication at face value. Naturally resentment and even anger are part of the conflict equation. And there are many other emotions playing their parts in the workplace conflict melodrama.
What we all need, it seems to me, is an implant in the space between our ears and our mouth. The implant would have multiple functions. First it would keep our mouth shut when we hear something we would normally respond to in a negative unproductive way. The benefits of keeping a much larger percentage of our thoughts to ourselves can not be over stated.
The implant would the re-route the input to where we keep what little common sense we have. This is the first step in understanding more clearly what someone meant by what they said and possibly even why they said it. When you keep your mouth shut and give people the benefit of the doubt, you can stop 75% of the misunderstandings created by these comments from becoming a problem or conflict.
The next 24% can be handled between the two of you - clearing the air in a productive way so you both understand the point of view of the other. This is a simple to implement process that really doesn't require any special knowledge or insight. Mostly it requires the desire of both people to work together more effectively.
What about the missing 1%? That's what HR is for.
Successful organization leaders understand that a key ingredient of success is the development and maintenance of shared goals for the future - shared by everyone in the organization. They also instinctively realize the stressful impact of workplace conflict, whether overt or covert, and appreciate how workplace conflict resolution strategies offer concrete savings to the individuals and the organization.

How to tell a real diamond from a fake
People want to know if there is some simple test they can do at home or little tricks of the trade to tell if the ring they own is a valuable heirloom or of the Cracker Jack variety. Without question the quickest and most reliable method for authenticity would be an independent appraisal. This can be accomplished easily enough by looking under “Appraisal (Jewelry)” in your yellow pages. When you call to enquire about their services you want to ask three questions:
1) Can you schedule an appointment or is it first come first served.
2) Ask the fee; $35.00-$75.00 is considered a fair price.
3) Ask if the jewelry will always be in your presence. If the appraiser says they will not evaluate the jewelry in front of you, find another appraiser.
If spending 50 bucks seems a little too steep to uncover the identity of your rock, you can head to your local jewelry store and ask their in-house gemologist to take a peek and give you their opinion.
Since opinions are like belly buttons (everyone’s got one) understand that in a lot of these quick 30-second evaluations mistakes can be made. Especially since most jewelers won’t charge you for 30 seconds of their time. (Just like with independent appraisals, don’t let the merchandise out of your sight.)
There are some less reliable methods you can try but there are no guarantees with these:
- The old “If it will scratch glass it has to be a diamond.” Well, it is true that diamonds do scratch glass but so do a lot of the other fakes on the market. To boot, it’s possible to injure your rock even if it’s real during your hardness test.
- The transparency test. If you flip the diamond in question upside down and place it over some newsprint and can clearly read through the stone, it’s not a diamond. (The problem with this test is some diamonds are cut shallow and can be read through.)
- The fog test. This test I like a lot. Put the rock in front of your mouth and fog it like you would try to fog a mirror. If it stays fogged for 2-4 seconds, it’s a fake. A real diamond disperses the heat instantaneously so by the time you look at it, it has already cleared up. (A downfall to this test is oil and dirt on the stone can effect its reliability and the test is not accurate at all on doublets where the top of the stone is diamond and the bottom is cubic zirconia epoxied together.)
- The weight test. The most popular of diamond simulants (fake) is a cubic zirconia. C.Z.’s weigh approximately 55% more than diamonds for the same shape and dimension. So if you have a carat or gram scale at your disposal you can see if the imposter tips the scales too much.
- The U.V. test. A high percentage of diamonds fluorescence blue when put under an ultra violet light (black light). Since 99% of all fakes don’t, a positive identification of medium to strong blue would indicate a diamond. The bad news is if this method proves you have a diamond, it also proves your diamond is worth less. Diamonds with blue fluorescence are as much as 20% less valuable. Remember, lack of blue fluorescence doesn’t mean it’s a fake; it could just be a better quality diamond.
- Under the loop test. If you own some sort of magnifying lens, there are some things you can look for on the stone that might give away its identity:
- Look at the rock from the top and see how well the facets (cuts on top of the diamond) are joined. They should be sharp, not rolled.
- Look at the girdle and see if it is faceted or frosty (a clear sign it’s a diamond) or waxy and slick (an indication it’s a fake).
- While you’re looking at your stone under magnification, look into your stone to see if you detect any flaws (carbon, pinpoints, small cracks). These are typically clear indications it’s the real thing, since it’s very hard to put inclusions in a fake.
- After examining the stone, focus in on the stamps inside the setting. A stamp of “10K, 14K, 18K, 585, 750, 900, 950, PT, Plat” indicates the setting is real gold or platinum which gives a better chance that the stone in it is real as well. While you’re looking at the interior of the ring, also look for any “C.Z.” stamps that would indicate the center stone is not a diamond.

song anygood?
the plunge eventually
we're going in, we're going in
the fog is rolling in
sound the fog horn, save the ship
a hurricane's blown up
board em up and pack your stuff
sirens will sound again
another crowing victim
The tides will turn again
just like the shifting sands
the angels in the heavens laugh
at our attempt to simplify
A complex world
and a complex self
there's moreto us than
heads and tails
flip a coin for left or right
vertical means I am right
And when you recognize the ties
between yourself and fantasize
that you see he cliffs ahead
you'll take the plunge eventualy
The plunge eventually
we're going in, we're going in
The waves are crashing down
Keep you head above the crown
Footings gone andbyou can't swim
find some ground to stand or else
the sirens will sound again
another drowning victim
The funny thing is that this song reads like a poem, which means that if you made it into a song, it would sound that much better!
"The tides will turn again
just like the shifting sands
the angels in the heavens laugh
at our attempt to simplify" - This sounds like it would be the chorus.
Nice job:) I was trying to imagine a rhythm in my head while I was reading it, and I came up with a few, all of which, because of your words, would make a nice song.

Perhaps Richmond and Melbourne should be given Sunday games in round one next year, just to keep that off-season optimism thing bubbling along for another day or two.
