Managing Member Disputes and Conflict on the Committee

About this event

Conflicts can be stressful. Healthy debate helps not-for-profits thrive, but if a conflict or dispute is preventing your organisation from achieving its goals, you need the tools to handle it effectively. Understanding the legal processes for handling disputes between members and with the committee will help your organisation achieve the best outcome.

• Why are these disputes often so damaging? 
• What processes are available to help resolve a dispute? 
• How can your organisation's rules or constitution help? 
• Where to go if you need more help to resolve a dispute?
