In every committee or staff team, there may come a time when the addition of individuals with strong views or personalities leads to destabilisation. For organisations to thrive, it is crucial to have teams composed of individuals with diverse skills and experiences, encouraging healthy debates. However, when someone becomes adamant that their approach is the only right one or when the inclusive nature of a committee is forsaken in favour of factions and exclusion, conflict can rapidly escalate. It is imperative to uphold the values of collaboration and open-mindedness to prevent conflicts from spiraling out of control.
