As long as relationships exist, there is bound to be conflict. There are conflicts in personal relationships between you and your family, where you squabble about living arrangements. There are conflicts in workplace relationships between you and your colleagues where you can’t agree on the resources to get a project done. There are conflicts between you and society and communities, where people can’t agree on how the country is run. No matter where you go, you can’t run away from conflict.

But beyond the basic conflict resolution or negotiation courses that we may have taken in school or the workplace, dealing with conflicts is typically something that we pick up along the way through hit-or-miss real life experiences. We all have our own preferred style of dealing with conflicts, but what if there are better ways than what you already know? 

Conflicts form the fabric of relationships and it is how well we navigate these conflicts that can make or break a relationship. From a simple decision where you decide with your family on where to go for dinner, to whether selling the house to fund medical expenses is the best course of action, there are different interests and viewpoints to account for. How do you take into account the different values that people have to resolve a conflict? 

In this session, learn to identify the underlying drivers of conflicts and understand the different fighting styles that people have. Understand your own fighting style and how that keeps you stuck or gets you moving in a conflict. Join us and discover the ways in which you can harness the power of conflict to grow as a person and in your relationships.
