Coursework content

Consider the following types of conflict and choose one.

  • A technical disagreement about how to write the code for a well-understood task.

  • The manager wants you to work faster but with a smaller team by rushing.

  • A competitive and ambitious person wants you to look bad so they can get a promotion instead.

Sort the following list of approaches or questions into priority and usefulness. Add your own strategies to this list.

  • [ ] Don’t let your emotions control you.

  • [ ] Each conflict is an opportunity.

  • [ ] Communicate clearly before there is a conflict.

  • [ ] What do they want? Relatively few people have hidden agendas.

  • [ ] What do you want? Assert your points clearly without being too shy.

  • [ ] Be assertive enough to make your point.

  • [ ] Paraphrase what the other person said, confirming your understanding and showing empathy.

  • [ ] What possible solutions to this conflict might exist?

  • [ ] Agree on part of the solution if you can’t agree on all of it.

  • [ ] What is their general attitude and approach?

  • [ ] Find out what facts the other person knows.

  • [ ] Build a network of people to support your resilience and perhaps mediate the conflict.

  • [ ] Escalate the topic to someone more senior to arbitrate.

  • [ ] … add your own strategies.
