Description

In this session, we will examine the key factors that contribute to creating interpersonal conflict. How do we recognize conflict as it happens in real time? How can we prepare to handle conflict before it escalates beyond repair? In addition to gaining a deeper understanding into the type and role of conflict, participants will practice verbal and emotional skills that are essential for engaging in a dialogue for discussing conflict. These skills include how to handle others’ emotional reactivity, how to reframe issues for shifting from the past to the future, and how to formulate questions for generating a partnership with others for advancing mutual interest.

Pre-Work

Please bring a conflict situation you are dealing with to work through during the session.

Please read the article “Too Hot To Handle? How to Manage Relationship Conflict” by Amy. C. Edmondson and Diana McLain Smith.
