Description Corporate Conflict Resolution practices have been in place for decades and they all revolve around a very traditional model of working. They have taught us about communicating effectively, watching for signals , tracking body language and paying attention to voice and face signals. Research tells us 93% of the meaning of a message comes from nonverbal sources and 55% of that is from facial expressions. So what happens when employees can no longer see each other, when communication happens over email, text or chat? By 2020, it is estimated that two thirds of corporate employees will work at least one day per week virtually. As well, 65% of virtual team members have said they have never been involved in an effective team-building meeting, and 36% of the team members had never met their coworkers face-to-face. As the workplace migrates from the traditional model of the past to the mobile and virtual workplace of the future, it is imperative that organizations adapt to these changes. With email, conference calls, Skype, chat, and Web-conferencing, it's now common for people to work together and rarely see each other face to face. These changes have impacted the way employees and teams not only work but how they disagree and resolve those disagreements.
