Understanding Your Conflict Style
When a conflict arises, most people have a default approach for how they handle the situation. Understanding your tendencies in responding to conflict and how you may need to adjust them will give you an advantage as you work through a negotiation.
The Two Most Extreme Conflict Styles
The competing style is highly assertive, seeking to satisfy one's own concerns even at the expense of others. The accommodating style is highly cooperative, willing to sacrifice one's own concerns to appease the needs of others. Both styles have benefits and costs depending on the situation.
Applying Conflict Modes in Negotiations
To get better results from negotiations, reflect on your own conflict tendencies and consider intentionally changing your style depending on the situation. Assess the benefits and costs of your natural instincts and explore alternative approaches and conflict modes.
