In our recent research project on the state of workplace conflict during COVID-19, 550 global respondents of employees and managers indicated these stats: 

40% of respondents talk about it to their supervisor, and 13% don’t talk about it at all.  

Our resolution skills are not improving with distance because fewer face-to-face conversations are taking place to work through issues.   

Methods used to resolve issues are lacking in interpersonal connection. 

Here’s the cold, hard truth: 

  • 33% use email  
  • 22% hope their supervisor will take care of it for them 
  • 11% use text messages
  • 8% avoid it altogether
