    Para resolvê-los, sigo alguns princípios práticos: Escuta ativa e imparcialidade – Reúno as partes envolvidas, escuto cada um com atenção e sem julgamentos, para entender a raiz do problema. Foco no objetivo comum – Reforço que todos têm um mesmo propósito: entregar o projeto com qualidade e dentro do prazo. Distribuição justa de tarefas – Reavalio, se necessário, a divisão das atividades para equilibrar cargas e habilidades, reduzindo tensões. Mediação rápida e discreta – Quanto mais cedo o conflito é tratado, menor o impacto no projeto. Por isso, ajo com agilidade, mas sem expor ninguém. O resultado costuma ser uma equipe mais alinhada, com confiança renovada e foco no que realmente importa: o sucesso do projeto

    Act quickly and focus on solutions. Start by holding a brief, direct discussion where all voices are heard and the shared project goal is emphasized. Use collaborative problem-solving to find a compromise or win-win solution, and assign clear roles to avoid further confusion. Maintain a calm, neutral tone and manage emotions to keep the conversation productive. After resolving the immediate issue, follow up post-deadline to address any lingering concerns and strengthen team cohesion for future projects.
