Conflict resolution
The Nevada INBRE administrative core team will minimize conflict through frequent communication with faculty, staff and administration at each partner institution through site visits, Outreach Communication Committee meetings, and the Nevada INBRE annual meeting. In the event that a conflict should arise, the PD/PI will follow the steps of the Nevada INBRE Conflict Resolution Plan. The Nevada INBRE Principal Investigator and director, Josh Baker, Ph.D., will work to resolve conflict by identifying and addressing the conflict through open communication, treating all parties with respect. The Nevada INBRE PI/director will explore alternative solutions with all parties to find a solution agreeable to all parties. If the first phase of informal conflict resolution fails to resolve the issue, the Nevada INBRE PI/director will refer the conflict to the External Advisory Committee who will review documents, discuss issues with all parties (separately or jointly) and identify paths to resolution. The decision of the External Advisory Committee will be considered final for all parties involved in the conflict.
