available to participate in teamwork assignments. You and your colleagues are most of the time left
to figure things out for yourselves and are overwhelmed with the tasks. As a result the work is not
always done properly. Clients are getting impatient as work is being delayed . They threaten to cancel
projects and look for another company.
Something has to be done. Suggest 2 types of conflict interventions which are suitable to be applied
to resolve the problem . Describe how these interventions work. Provide reasons for your choice.
