Your team is divided after a major office conflict. How can you rebuild trust and collaboration effectively?

Trust and Communication can be rebuilt by fostering open communication, active listening, practicing empathy, and promoting teamwork. I will encourage honest dialogue, acknowledge feelings, and work together to find common ground in moving forward.

First, I’d bring the team together for an open discussion where everyone can voice their concerns in a respectful environment. It’s important to acknowledge the issue without assigning blame and focus on understanding each person’s perspective. From there, I’d establish clear communication guidelines and encourage collaborative problem-solving. To rebuild trust, I’d emphasize team-building activities and set common goals, ensuring everyone feels heard and valued as we move forward.
