Determine dependencies among activities.

Define a schedule for conducting the required activities.

Monitor and control the resources in order to achieve the required result on schedule

To effectively deal with conflicts in a team, one must deal with their own internal dissensions, thereby allowing proficiency in relating to others. Many conflicts stem from the impending presence of divergent attitudes, values, and perceptions within the team. (DeJanasz-Dowd-Schneider, 2001, page:246) Before trying to resolve team conflict, one must take the time to consider the beliefs applicable to each member, as well as their own, incorporating a substantial portion of each into the final thoughts. One must organize these multifaceted thoughts into ideas reflective of each member's perspectives.
