📱 eBook en inglés TENSION SIGNALS MISALIGNMENT, NOT PERSONAL DYSFUNCTION

This book examines the widespread managerial misconception that interpersonal conflict primarily stems from personality clashes or communication failures. Drawing from organizational dynamics research, systems theory, and workplace behavior patterns, it explores how recurring tensions typically expose structural misalignments—unclear roles, competing priorities, resource constraints, or mismatched incentives—rather than individual deficiencies.
The text reveals how conventional conflict resolution approaches focused on mediating between individuals often address symptoms while leaving underlying organizational contradictions intact. It reframes workplace tension as diagnostic feedback that illuminates where systems, processes, or expectations require recalibration, demonstrating how managers who interpret conflict structurally achieve more sustainable resolutions than those who treat it interpersonally.
Through examination of authority ambiguity, accountability gaps, and reward system inconsistencies that generate predictable friction points, the book constructs frameworks for distinguishing genuine interpersonal issues from organizationally-induced tensions. It explores the balance between addressing immediate disputes and implementing systemic corrections that prevent pattern recurrence.
Readers navigate the mechanics of investigating conflict origins beyond surface narratives, identifying organizational factors that create competitive rather than collaborative incentives, and constructing solutions that modify structures instead of personalities. The framework emphasizes managerial practices that transform recurring tensions into opportunities for operational refinement.
