The five most common triggers to conflict in the workplace are:

Differing work styles or expectations
“I’m not a micromanager, why are you trying to make me into one?”

Personality clashes
“I’m always here early, and I’m the last to leave; they come and go as they please.”

Competing for resources or recognition
“Our department’s budget has been cut three years running. How am I supposed to hit these targets?”

Lack of clear communication
“You didn’t tell me you needed it for the conference. It’s not going to be ready.”

Power dynamics
“You’re not my line manager, so stop acting like you are!”
