Abstract

This is a descriptive-interpretative study with a qualitative approach, conducted in a public university in Mato Grosso. It aimed to know the conflicts in the working relationships between university professors. The study took place between January and April 2017, through a semi-structured interview guided by a pre-tested script prepared by the researcherers themselves. Data was examined based on content analysis. The constant presence of conflicts, dishonesty, exclusion, excessive requirements/(self) demands, and indifference to collective work,
which impairs the full development of teaching activities, were observed in the university environment. It is concluded that promoting more harmonious working relations, based on dialogue, respect for others and for their work, and conflict mediation, can help to overcome this scenario.
