At the beginning of the study, interviews were conducted with 14 employees, 4 project executives, 3 professional trainers, and 2 academicians from the research population through semi-structured interview forms. The qualitative data were analyzed with MAXQDA 2018. 02 program and a quantitative data collection tool was developed in light of the qualitative analysis findings. Then, by using a convenient sampling method, quantitative data were collected from 133 R & D employees (46 females and 87 males) regarding their perceptions of the factors that cause conflicts in organizations and their perceived effective conflict management skills. The quantitative data were analyzed with SPSS 22 program by using the descriptive analysis method and the findings were discussed in terms of the learning and development needs of employees.
