Conflict is inevitable and often good, for example, good teams always go

through a "form, storm, norm and perform" period. Getting the most out of
diversity means often-contradictory values, perspectives and opinions.
Conflict is when two or more values, perspectives and opinions are
contradictory in nature and haven't been aligned or agreed about yet,
including:
1. Within yourself when you're not living according to your values;
2. When your values and perspectives are threatened; or
3. Discomfort from fear of the unknown or from lack of fulfillment.

Conflict between people is a fact of life – and it’s not necessarily a bad thing.
In fact, a relationship with frequent conflict may be healthier than one with
no observable conflict. Conflicts occur at all levels of interaction – at work,
among friends, within families and between relationship partners. When
conflict occurs, the relationship may be weakened or strengthened. Thus,
conflict is a critical event in the course of a relationship. Conflict can cause
resentment, hostility and perhaps the ending of the relationship. If it is
handled well, however, conflict can be productive – leading to deeper
understanding, mutual respect and closeness. Whether a relationship is
healthy or unhealthy depends not so much on the number of conflicts
between participants, but on how the conflicts are resolved
Role conflict is a conflict among the roles corresponding to two or more
statuses.

Role Conflict
Role conflict is a special form of social conflict that takes place when one is
forced to take on two different and incompatible roles at the same time.

Examples may include a doctor who has two commitments: that of doctor
and that of father. He must decide whether he should be present for his
daughter's birthday party (in his role as "father") or attend an ailing patient
(as "doctor"). This is related to the psychological concept of cognitive
dissonance.

In other situations, two or more roles collide. For example, in the case of a
father who is the coach of his son’s baseball team. The man takes on both
the role of father and coach. If the boy makes a bad play in the game, a
father would be inclined to support and comfort his son. A coach, however,
would be inclined to explain to the boy exactly what he did wrong. This
collision represents role conflict where two roles in an individual's role set
cannot cooperate in a specific social situation.
