Defining Conflict
• From an organizational point of view, conflict can be viewed as anything that disrupts the “normal” routine.
• Conflict is also “the hostility caused when you strived for the outcomes you prefer, and thus prevent others from getting the outcome they want.”
• Are there other definitions that work for you?

Open Conflict vs. Hidden Conflict
There are two ways of dealing with conflict. • We can be open and up front about it • We can keep it hidden and let it smolder inside us
Group Questions• Can you think of times when you have been open about
a conflict you are experiencing with another person?• Can you think of a time when you were more covert or
hidden about how you were really feeling? • Why did you sometimes feel okay about speaking up?• What held you back when you were keeping your
conflict hidden?

Spontaneous and Reflective Action
• Those who are extroverts are notorious for opening their mouth and putting their foot in it.
• This is spontaneous behavior: neither thinking things through nor considering the consequences before we speak.
• However, introverts are usually more reflective. • This means they think before they speak, but they
also self-censure to the point that what needs to be said doesn’t get verbalized.

Paraphrasing
• Paraphrasing is another skill that is critical to your efforts to resolve conflict. It helps clarify what is being said by both parties in the disagreement.
• The key to paraphrasing in a conflict situation is to remain calm and collected, as you restate what you believe they’ve said.

The Conflict/Opportunity Test
• What is the conflict? • Who are the players?• If this conflict is resolved, what are the benefits?• If this conflict is not resolved, what are the payoffs
or benefits for me?• If the conflict is not resolved, what harm can follow?• If this conflict is resolved, will the benefit create a
better situation than before the conflict arose?• Whatever the outcome, can I see that the conflict
added a positive dimension to the potential outcome?

Facilitating Conflict
• There is a danger of being in the midst of a difficult situation without recognizing it.
• Prepare. • Gather as much information as you can
about how the other person /group might be thinking and feeling. Try to understand their perspective.
• Know your own hot buttons. What makes you react or get angry?

Facilitating Conflict
Facilitating conflict has two distinct steps:
Venting: This involves listening to people so they feel heard, and so that built up emotions are defused. People are rarely ready to move on to solutions until their emotional blacks have been removed.
Resolving the issue: This means choosing the right structured approach to get to solutions. This can be a collaborative problem-solving activity, compromising, accommodating, or consciously avoiding.

Setting Norms
• What behaviors and rules should we adhere to if we find ourselves getting into serious disagreements?
• What can we do to ensure that we have a good debate instead of a heated argument?
![Page 28: Conflict Management Kn](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54474f26b1af9f1b098b4612/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Making an Intervention
• During any workshop or meeting, there are many occasions when you will need to make an intervention.
• The definition of intervention is: “any action or set of actions deliberately taken to improve the functioning of the group.”
• Intervening is like holding up a mirror to the participants so that they can see what they're doing and take steps to correct the problem.
![Page 29: Conflict Management Kn](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54474f26b1af9f1b098b4612/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Making Interventions
Word interventions by:• Describe what you're seeing.• Make an impact statement. • Redirect the person's behavior(s).
Examples:• "I'm noticing that ..." • "I'd like to offer this observation. ..." • "Let's stop for a moment and look at what's happening
here." • "It strikes me that ..." • “What are people experiencing right now?”

Making Interventions
Deal with resistance using these steps.
Step 1 Invite the resistor to express his or her resistance while
you listen actively, paraphrase and offer empathy.• “Tell me why you feel this way?”• “What happened last time?” Step 2After all the concerns have been acknowledged, ask
questions to prompt the resistor to suggest solutions.• “What circumstances would make you willing to stay?” • “What assurance will eliminate your concerns?”
