Is conflict running rampant in your workplace?

If allowed to grow unchecked, conflict in the workplace drags down morale, creates tension and frustration, gets in the way of productivity and poisons work relationships. Clearly, you want to reduce the amount of conflict occurring in your workplace, but what is the best way to go about it?

How do you deal with aggressive behavior, negative attitudes, excessive sarcasm, hidden agendas and other sources of workplace conflict in a positive, healthy, productive fashion?
