High level of conflict in an organization 2

In my last post, I asked the question regarding the level of conflict an organization can support. Although some specialists admit that some kind of conflict is good for an organization, they also affirm that excessive conflict can be destructive. The question to answer now should be: what is the tolerable limit?

     One thing is to identify some individuals who cannot work in teams. These are called individual contributors. The second thing to be done is to find out why these individuals do not like working in teams. Is it because of conflict among the members of the team? The real thermometer is measured by the number of people who desist in working in a team. If many people resist working in a team, that means a high level of conflict. In this case, specialists recommend that organization take drastic measure.

     The drastic measure is to fire the leaders of the conflict. Specialists argue that these individuals must be fired in order to prevent the destablization of the organization. Therefore, organizations should watch closely to know when the situation is getting out of hand in order to take the necessary action.
