Select the answer using the code given below.

Correct Option: (c) 3 only

Let's evaluate the actions for resolving interpersonal conflict in an office with culturally diverse personnel. Action 1: 'Direct personnel to practise activities that are the cultural markers of diverse groups' - Forcing personnel to practice specific cultural markers can sometimes accentuate differences or cause discomfort, making it an inappropriate directive for conflict resolution. Action 2: 'Allow conflicts to resolve naturally over time to set an appropriate precedent of leadership' - Passively allowing workplace conflicts to fester without intervention is poor leadership and fails to resolve interpersonal tensions. Action 3: 'Encourage personnel to seek each other's perspectives' - Active listening, empathy, and encouraging employees to understand and appreciate each other's diverse viewpoints is a best practice in intercultural conflict resolution. Therefore, only statement 3 is correct. Option (c) is the correct answer.
