Personal styles of dealing with conflict
Avoidance
You completely withdraw from the
conflict, as if it doesn't exist.

Accommodation
You put aside your goals and
basically give in, although inside
you are frustrated and angry.

party eventually gives up.

Personal styles of dealing with conflict
Compromise
You give up something and so
does the other party, but neither of you is totally
satisfied.

to find a solution that satisfies both
of you.

It’s likely that a person employs more than one style, depending on the situation, but
usually one style dominates.

How should you resolve conflict?
Understand the conflict.
It is important for you to define clearly your own position and
interests in the conflict. It is equally important to understand those of the
other party.

How should you resolve conflict?
Communicate with the opposition.
Put yourself in their shoes. Listen.
Let everyone participate who wants to.
Be an active listener. Rephrase what you’re hearing.
Use “I” messages. “You” messages place blame.
Speak about your interests, not your position.
Don’t interrupt, or change the subject.

How should you resolve conflict?
Chose the best resolution.
Review your brainstorm ideas. Set a time when you’ll decide which idea is the

sides the MOST?
