2CONFLICT CONCEPTDefinitionConflict is the phenomenon that arises when a party perceives that another part is about to or already as assailed, the latter is interesting. The conflict also arises when the opinions, values,or principles of one party are in contrast it another’s (Dalton, 2013).SummaryDepending on the approach, an individual or group chooses to take to resolve conflict; it can be perceived as either positive or negative, in this case in an organization. Conflicts were a cause of unease in traditional settings and avoidance, therefore, was recommended. However,in recent times conflict is gaining a different light where the human resource and interactionist views, as well as the functional forms of conflicts, are concerned. For these views, conflict is an inevitable concept if not necessary in an organization if it is to grow and have the interests of the employees in mind (Dave, 2012)... The organization is seen as an indifferent to the needs of change otherwise, and this causes discomfiture for the employee. However, in the dysfunctional view of the conflict, a more destructive form of conflict assumed, causes hindrance rather than progress. Conflict occurs at various levels in an organization where the interests of the individuals are impinged upon. The levels vary from high, moderate to low. The low and moderate are essential for the organization to achieve progress which high levels of conflict may disrupt an organization (Dave, 2012).Conflict in an organization may also occur at the macro or micro levels of the organization.

The macro level takes an interpersonal form were conflict is within different personalities in a group or groups (Dave, 2012).

In all these techniques, the parties should be ready to compromise their standing in order to resolve the conflict peacefully. “Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him;lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison” (King James Bible, Matthew 5:25). The bible also statesthat the resolution of the conflict is imperative for the individual to have peace of mind. This is collaborated by the fact that conflict is the cause of unease for both parties involved (Jamali, 2010).Responses Response 1 (Dividend yield)Hey, (Name), I would have to concur with your argument that the dividend market for those with low stocks is fickle regarding income. It would be unwise to invest in the dividend market unless you own a substantial amount of stocks (Preis, 2012). The stock market is a large area in which there are those few who make it and prosper. For starters, who aspire to rise in the stock market should indeed start small and build their way upward. The point at which your opinion and mine part is loyalty towards companies while starting in the stocks is not necessary. Caution is my advice. When out for a long-term investment you may tend towards loyalty while, if you are out to make a quick dime loyalty may be the back seat of that bus. You find that company stocks tend to fluctuate in the market, which may be an opportunity as well as a
