Navigating Conflict in the Workplace
The skills to identify and respond to conflict effectively can be learned.
Conflict in the workplace is inevitable. Learn how to manage it successfully so that you reap the benefits it can bring, and avoid the potential harm.
Conflict in the workplace can take many forms. There can be inter-personal conflict, conflict around ideas, unexpressed conflict, destructive conflict or not enough conflict. All of these affect performance, engagement and wellbeing.
In this session we explore the different types of conflict, and how to best respond to them.
Research shows that conflict, when managed appropriately can create fresh starts, and breakthroughs in thinking and can re-energise a team. Poorly managed conflict can devastate morale, performance, psychological safety and client outcomes

Division 7A Essentials
Stay ahead with Division 7A essentials.
The basic operative provisions of Division 7A ITAA 1936 should be familiar to most taxation and accounting professionals. While we all strive to attain a reasonable working knowledge of the rules, it’s not unheard of in practice, to ‘inherit’ problems that need to be resolved or to be ‘blindsided’ by the lesser known or more complex aspects of the provisions.
Most advisers will appreciate that problems can often be resolved by revisiting the ‘first principles’ of the legislative provisions. Equally, they will also be aware that difficulties with the trickier aspects of Division 7A ITAA 1936, may be overcome with a basic understanding of their existence and operation.
Learning outcomes:
This session is intended to deal with the ‘essentials’ of Division 7A needed to get by in practice and will cover:
- a refresher on Division 7A;
- the practical application of the key provisions; and
- how to handle the more complex aspects of these rules.
Suited to:
All accounting and taxation professionals, who require a working knowledge and better understanding of more advanced Division 7A ITAA 1936 issues.
