How do you deal with conflict?

Question

AviatorTom · Accepted Answer

A company I once worked for sent me to a one-day seminar on conflict resolution. It was disappointing. Rather than learning how to resolve conflict, teh seminar spent most of the time teaching how to avoid it.

I tend to try to avoid conflict whenever I can, and when it happens, I try to reach a compromise solution, which is often difficult.

I respond with intelligence. Not all 'conflicts' are worth to engage with. The few remaining ones: be three steps ahead of those who 'conflict' me; defuse them. Ice defeats fire.

It depends on the person. If I care about someone, I’ll communicate, listen, and work through the conflict because I value the relationship more than being right…if I don’t know them or don’t care about the connection, I simply don’t engage.. some things aren’t worth the energy... 😄

My impulsive reaction is to avoid it for as long as possible, until eventually, hopefully, it gets buried. Although I will confront the situation right away if I have to

NathanDavis · Answer

90% of them time I avoid it... I keep walking 9% of the time... oh well, conflict can have a solution, so focus on the resolutions instead that 1%, though...

It depends. If it escalates, it is either that I completely shut down or I get cold/dismissive or they have to face pure unfiltered rage.
The last happens rarely as the years go by, but it is like a switch. With the right triggers it activates.

I try to be more direct and honest because I spent too many years being a doormat. Now it's finding the best way to tone it.

I don't I just walk away or ignore it because I genuinely just can not be bothered with it. I'm not gonna waste my time, energy or breath on someone's stupid bullshit.

Conflicts have both a dirty and a clean side; whoever treats me a certain way will get back exactly what they give.
