ABSTRACT

Whether or not that is true for society at large, you should not encourage such a culture to develop within your team.

Just as the best and chief reason for investigating accidents is to prevent them happening again, so the chief reason for resolving conflict should be to achieve more harmonious working relationships and a generally more pleasant, positive atmosphere in which to work. Fear of being blamed or disciplined unjustly will make it much harder to reach the root of any problem, which is no good to anyone.
