MANAGING DIFFERENCES AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION A SKILL MUST TO BE DEVELOPED IN FAMILY BUSINESS
Small Enterprise|August 2021
Longstanding family conflict can bring a family business to its knees. It saps energy and happiness and holds back the business from functioning optimally. The first step in resolving longstanding conflict is recognizing that the consequences of avoiding an issue are worse than the emotional discomfort of discussing it. Let us look at an example of a family that succeeded in resolving longstanding conflict.
- Dr. N. Krishnan
MANAGING DIFFERENCES AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION A SKILL MUST TO BE DEVELOPED IN FAMILY BUSINESS

The family, moving from its second to third generation of family operation and ownership, had hit a snag: Conflict was hindering the generational transition. The conflict had been under the surface for some time; everyone knew it was there but did not want to talk about it in an open format. A facilitator had been engaged to help the family with the transition, and one of the topics that emerged was the unresolved conflict. After years of remaining in a state of discomfort, the family realized they had to address the conflict in order to achieve their goals.

The issues primarily involved three siblings and one of their G4 uncles. A facilitated session was arranged so these

Four people could communicate in an effective and fair manner. The group convened at the traditional family home, with portraits of their forebears looking on. The facilitator reiterated the agreed-upon goals for the meeting, and everyone reviewed the protocol for how they would share the talking space, listen without judgment and manage their responses to shift their pattern of negative emotional reactions. The group agreed to look at the origins of the conflict, work to resolve their differences and agree on how they would move forward together.
