Abstract:
The field of Organizational Behaviour is reputed for its vastness. As a result, this paper
discusses the critical aspects of conflict and stress in modern day organizations including their
resolution approaches and mechanisms. In addition, the paper outlines various ways in which
stress and conflict management enhances the understanding of the field of Organizational
Behaviour. The study argues that organizational conflict and occupational stress are two sides
of the same coin whereas a holistic study of organizational conflict and occupational stress
(causes, manifestations and management strategies) deepens our understanding of
organization behaviour. It is envisioned that scholars and practitioners in the fields of
psychology, conflict studies, Organizational Behaviour and Human Resource Management
among others will find this paper useful to their endeavors
