<P> Within small groups, the same dichotomy exists . Granted that both constructive and destructive conflict occurs in most small groups, it is very important to accentuate the constructive conflict and minimize the destructive conflict . Conflict is bound to happen, but if used constructively need not be a bad thing . </P> <P> Using constructive conflict within small groups by bringing up problems and alternative solutions (while still valuing others) allows the group to work forward . While "conflict may involve interpersonal as well as task issues", keeping a window open for dissent can prove very advantageous, as where a company "reaped big benefits because it did not simply try to suppress conflict, but allowed minority influence to prevail". </P> <P> On the other hand, there is evidence that an organizational culture of disrespect unproductively "generates a morass of status games and infighting ...' it's made people turn against each other"' - so that for example "sexual harassment becomes a chronic accompaniment to broader patterns of infighting". </P> <P> Lacan saw the roots of intra-group aggression in a regression to the "narcissistic moment in the subject", highlighting "the aggressivity involved in the effects of all regression, all arrested development, all rejection of typical development in the subject". Neville Symington also saw narcissism as a key element in group conflict, singling out "organizations so riven by narcissistic currents that...little creative work was done". Such settings provide an opening for "many egoistic instinct - feelings - as the desire to dominate and humiliate your fellow, the love of conflict - your courage and power against mine - the satisfaction of being the object of jealousy, the pleasures derived from the exercise of cunning, deceit and concealment". Fischer (2012) distinguished between two forms of intragroup conflict in organizations . In a "restorative" form, paranoid - schizoid "splitting" can be transformed through scapegoating dynamics to produce reparative ("depressive") intragroup relations . In a contrasting "perverse" form, intragroup trauma causes paranoid - schizoid functioning to fragment, resulting in an intersubjective "entanglement" with sadomasochistic dynamics . </P>
