Certainly, but in every aspect of life, bad people try to take advantage through a variety of tactics. Checking inward for responsibility, accountability, and improvement first is a fine tactic, especially in leadership. Over time, and likely through experience, you'll learn how to sniff out the bad actors.
This is of course, harder to achieve when you have significant emotional investment in the conflict at hand. Detaching and analyzing yourself, and the situation can be a super power here.
