Conflict Response Strategies

SmoothingDisagreements are smoothed over or ignored so that surface

harmony is maintained in a state of peaceful coexistence.

CollaboratingValid problem solving takes place with varying points of view objectively evaluated against facts; emotions,

reservations, and doubts are examined and worked through.

AvoidingNeutrality is maintained at all

costs. Withdrawal behind walls of insulation relieves the necessity of dealing with

situations that would arouse conflict.

CompetingConflict is suppressed through authority-obedience approach. Win-lose power struggles are

fought out, decided by the highest common boss or

through third party arbitration.

CompromisingBargaining and middle ground positions are accepted so that no one wins - nor does anyone

lose. Accommodation and adjustment lead to "workable"

rather than best solutions.
