National Centre for Diversity Announce A Workplace Conflict Conference With A Difference

    LEEDS, ENGLAND, April 06, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The conference is specifically aimed at HR Directors; Senior HR Managers; Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Managers and practitioners.

Solat Chaudhry, Chief Executive at the National Centre for Diversity, said "Workplace conflict can drain energy and reduce productivity, but it can also lead to innovation. With this event we will enhance existing knowledge, improve practical skills and help leaders and senior staff members, to change the lens through which they view workplace conflict."

The event will cover topics which allow attendees to explore workplace conflict, its root causes, effects and its manifestations. Speakers and workshop leaders will include Solat Chaudhry, Chief Executive at the National Centre for Diversity and Luke Green, Partner in the Employment team, Hill Dickinson. The conference is being chaired by Caroline Wells, Head of Outreach at the Financial Ombudsman Service.

A UK survey conducted in 2010 by People Resolutions, in conjunction with Human Potential Accounting, found that workplace conflict costs UK businesses GBP24 billion every year.

Caroline Wells comments "We spend a significant amount of our lives at work, and workplace conflict can have a real impact on our wellbeing. I'm very pleased NCFD are discussing this at their event in June - and proud to be chairing an event that's so focused on making a positive difference to our everyday lives."

NOTES TO EDITORS
Back in 2005, the National Centre for Diversity was a grass roots movement created through the sheer will and determination of the most committed, passionate and knowledgeable across sectors in the UK. Bringing their own personal experiences to the table they had one profound goal in mind - to bring knowledge and understanding of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) to organisations in the UK.

Today, the National Centre for Diversity offers their own 'Top Performers index', training, e-learning courses and bespoke support to enhance understanding of EDI. They have grown and now work in partnership with over 600 organisations across the UK.

NCFD want to create a society where there is genuine equality of opportunity, and there is fairness for all.

The NCFD works with organisations of all sizes in the private, public and voluntary sectors; including Schools, Further Education institutions, Construction companies, Prisons, Housing Associations and NHS Trusts.

NCFD will continue to grow, and use the momentum they have built over the last 10 years; to drive forward Equality, Diversity and Inclusion to ensure fairness for all.
