How to DEAL WITH CONFLICT at work - Busi...

Chris - Breakout Business English
About this episode

Send Chris a message

Let's discuss some professional English vocabulary that we can use to resolve conflicts at work. We're talking about how to deal with difficult colleagues and how to solve arguments and disagreements with your team mates and coworkers. We'll hear some idea for what to do in these situations and some natural and native sounding vocabulary so that you know exactly what to say when people start to get angry in the workplace.

This is also one of the most common job interview questions and a lot of the vocabulary in this podcast can be used to build a great answer to that job interview question. 

Arguing with your colleagues is challenging, especially in your second language. Hopefully this podcast can help you in those professional situations. 

Don’t forget that my full time job is helping international professionals who use English at work to improve their communication skills. So, if you need English to do your job but don’t speak it natively then maybe we can work together to help you to achieve your language goals. If you’d like to book some time to meet with me through one to one video calls, then you can go to:
