In this interactive workshop, you will discover your conflict style. You will also learn four other styles. Then you will practice approaching conflicts in new and more productive ways.
Takeaways:
- Describe the five conflict styles in the Thomas-Kilmann Model: accommodate, avoid, collaborate, compete, and compromise
- Describe situations when each of the five styles in the Thomas-Kilmann Model would be appropriate
- Identify your own go-to style of responding to conflict
- Compare your default pattern for responding to conflict with four alternatives
- Identify conflict situations where a different style might be more appropriate
