At the core of many societal conflicts lies the belief that one’s perspective is entirely correct—without room for doubt.

The STAIR Way to Resolving Workplace Micro-conflicts
The STAIR way to resolving conflicts refers to the Spatz Team-assist & AI Review (STAIR) platform, a cutting-edge concept designed to address micro-conflicts before they escalate into larger workplace issues.
