Synopsis

This book investigates conflict within research and development departments, which are often overlooked despite being common. The author suggests that conflict within these environments can be either positive or negative based on the type of conflict. Technical conflicts, or disagreements about objectives and methods, can lead to constructive debate and improved performance. However, interpersonal conflicts, or conflicts based on personal issues or disagreements between supervisors and subordinates, can hinder productivity. The author explores the causes and consequences of these conflicts through surveys and case studies, analyzing their impact on performance and the effectiveness of project teams. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into managing conflict in R&D organizations, highlighting the importance of fostering productive technical debates while mitigating the negative effects of interpersonal conflicts to optimize performance and innovation.
