Provide a brief explanation as to why group leaders welcome group conflict and why conflict can be helpful to the growth of the group members

What will be an ideal response?


When group leaders help the group process those conflicts, it can result in greater group cohesion and member growth and self-awareness when resolved. When handled correctly, those confrontations and ruptures can lead to greater levels of intimacy when repaired. In their everyday lives, many clients do not receive feedback from others, nor do they have relationships in which ruptures 1) occur and 2) are then repaired. Therefore, providing members with an opportunity to have conflict and express emotion allows for new ways of being that can be transferred.
