Dates by RequestDealing Constructively with Conflicts as a Software Architect
What keeps software architects from doing the work they are supposed to be doing? They are positioned between the conflicting priorities of different stakeholders (management, customers, development team, etc.) and must communicate and mediate depending on who they are dealing with. They must develop solutions with their development team that can be positively implemented while bridging the gap between budget and quality. They have to think outside the box and at the same time provide practical and all-knowing support wherever it is required. And all that with an often vaguely defined role leading to differences in expectations and without any management authority, while still bearing responsibility as the architect for the outcome. These circumstances lead to conflicts small and large which we address in this training in order to resolve them for the future. This training course provides you with concrete, usable tools for your work. We work on your cases and learn strategies for constructive negotiation, moderation, and conflict resolution. For example, you receive our pocket-sized in-house-developed conflict analysis canvas which helps you to analytically respond to confusing situations:
Agenda
-
Define the role of the software architect: development of one’s own role and interests
-
Shining a light on stakeholder interests: development of the contact points to other stakeholders and their interests
-
Learn about the conflict analysis canvas: presentation of the canvas
-
Analyse conflict cases: consider personal practical cases with the help of the individual elements of the canvas
-
Develop constructive conflict resolution: presentation of strategies for the prevention of conflicts or their constructive resolution (including moderation of heterogenous groups, receiver-oriented presenting and convincing, coaching questions and lateral management, quick decisions in the group after consent)
-
Use constructive conflict resolution: use of the appropriate solution strategies in your own practical cases
-
Transfer: (preventive) behavior for the early recognition and resolution of conflicts in your work

Psychologische Sicherheit, Effektive Kommunikation
- Psychologische Sicherheit fördern
Markus unterstützt seit mehr als 20 Jahren Unternehmen darin, mit Agilität erfolgreich zu werden. Davor hat Markus als Software-Entwickler gearbeitet und wechselt jetzt zwischen den Rollen Trainer, Coach und Berater - je nachdem was die Situation beim Kunden erfordert.
Sein Fokus liegt dabei auf den eher unsichtbaren Aspekten einer agilen Veränderung, z.B. Vertrauen und effektive Kommunikation, die die Selbstorganisation von Teams erst effektiv macht; z.B. das Community-Building, das erfolgreiche teamübergreifende Zusammenarbeit erst möglich macht oder z.B. die vielen kleinen Interventionen und Impulse, die eine große Veränderung zu einer agilen und modernen Organisation erst erfolgreich machen.
Die Förderung von psychologische Sicherheit ist dabei einer der Grundpfeiler seiner Arbeit.
