In the progression from conflict resolution to conflict transformation, the latter can be understood in several different ways.

Philosophy

Conflict is an inevitable aspect of social interaction and it can be either constructive or destructive. Sometimes, it is both. Our role as a conflict consultant is to assist individuals, organizations and collections of organizations develop and implement systems to manage the potentially destructive aspects of conflict and harness the constructive aspects of conflict. I believe that individuals who are responsible for organizations know, through intuition and experience, where debilitating conflict is occurring or likely to occur. Our responsibility is to assist in developing and implementing systems to effectively manage and transform these conflicts.
