From the Paper:

"Professional business objectives requires intellectual, philosophical, procedural, and administrative approaches to achieving goals. Therefore, many business decisions and operations benefit from input by team members whose efforts and expertise are dedicated to specific areas.
"Conflict is an inevitable component of negotiation among groups of individuals dedicated to accomplishing a common goal or achieving a shared objective. In many respects, conflict is beneficial because it allows the group to consider wider perspectives than normally available to each member of the group individually. In the business environment, effective conflict resolution strategies are necessary to minimize any disruptive or destructive effects caused by conflict within the team."
