How would you resolve a conflict between you and a colleague in the office?

Whenever people are working together and spending a significant amount of time together, conflict is to be expected. While it may be inevitable, companies want to hire people with strong conflict resolution skills to resolve issues quickly. There is no room for drama or pettiness at the workplace; that can lead to a toxic work environment. Demonstrate that you can successfully diffuse a situation by speaking directly with the colleague, listening to their side of the situation, and coming up with a compromise both parties can agree on.
