A total of 33 participants, representing a diverse group of professionals, including managers, human resources professionals, credit risk management officers, customer relations managers from banks, advocates and government officials, attended the training programme, according to a press release.

The programme was designed to enhance workplace harmony and enhance productivity by promoting various conflict resolution strategies, including alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques.

Muhammad A (Rumee) Ali, vice-chairman of BIAC, attended the closing ceremony of the two-day programme and distributed certificates to participants.

He encouraged participants to apply the knowledge and skills they had acquired to foster a more harmonious and productive work environment within their respective organisations.

The training emphasised the role of ADR in fostering positive work environments and providing professionals with the essential skills to handle conflicts efficiently and collaboratively.
