ABSTRACT

Objective:

Methods:

Results:

Four conflict scenes were produced, involving nurses and nursing technicians, health managers, multiprofessional health teams, and patient care. In this context, 274 record units were identified regarding skills and attitudes for nurses to manage conflicts.

Final Considerations:

The skills and attitudes essential for conflict management were: effective verbal communication, body language observation, knowing how to listen, negotiate, make decisions, be neutral, impartial, and how to lead democratically.
