This question contains two parts; be sure to answer both.

First, describe the relationship between the amount of conflict in a department or organization and that department or organization's performance. At what level of conflict is performance maximized?

Second, suppose that you are the manager of a store that sells medical supplies for the handicapped or infirm.

Explain how you would manage any two of the three sources of conflict.

The response/answer to EACH discussion part must be 100 to 125 words for a total of 200 to 250 words.
