Conflict Resolution

Our response to conflict can show us how determined , responsible, or terrified you are or will become or have . Leader can rise to the occasion and deal with conflict. While people like the character shmuel from the boy in the striped pajamas can’t.

Some individuals decide to take action to handle the situation while others won’t. There are people like Winston Churchill, a leader , who is brave and will not back down. On the contrary Shmuel , a prisoner at a concentration camp, deals with conflict the opposite way that Churchill does. Although their struggles are a bit different , this shows what kind of person they are.

Good evening all. Today I am here to talk to you about the great debate of climate change. For those of you who don’t know, climate change is the change in global or regional climate patterns and is attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels. In today’s society the general lack of interest and ignorance to climate change is astounding. You today are the generation of the future and if you want a planet for yourself and your future children it is your responsibility to act now and retaliate to the sceptics and deniers! Human advancement has been dependent on pushing the boundaries

As humans being we should constantly be trying to improve ourselves each and every day. It is not easy to try and assess ourselves but it is a necessary task. We have strengths and weaknesses that make us unique and it is important that we accept our flaws but at the same time try to improve them. Hence, we should refer to our vulnerabilities as opportunities for improvement in order to better ourselves. This has been a constant struggle for me because I find it hard to assess myself. I am glad that I was able to utilize the RNAO Leadership Self-Assessment tool to assess my leadership skills as well as have someone else assess me with it. It allowed me to compare how I rate myself to how they rated me. Based on the assessment tool some of my strengths included empowering my peers, being helpful towards them and communicating effectively. My shortcomings included ineffectively resolving conflicts, and creating a sense of presence and accessibility. Even though we differed on various scores per category we both rated me a one out of five for managing conflicts adequately. This news was not surprising to me as I know I am not the best at resolving conflicts because I would rather just give in than express how I feel or confront an individual at all. To be an exceptional well rounded leader it is imperative that one has a good grasp of conflict resolution strategies because they will inevitably come your way. The purpose of

There are five conflicting styles used to improve with conflicts, discrepancies, and other incongruity behaviors amongst a group of workers. Zalaback (2011) Avoidance style is when people in an organization overlook the main problems. When practicing this method of style, these people typically have a difficult time achieving their own goals and other necessary job tasks. Compromising style is another method used when conflicts occur. This person plays the role of an mediator because they are willing to go that extra mile to ensure that everyone is happy and pleased with the overall decision made. Collaboration style is when a person tries to have a balance amongst the employees and their job duties, during a conflict. Competition style is when others forget to include the ideas of other co-workers. However, these competitive employees usually get their jobs done before others. According to Zalaback (2015) “Competitive individuals often

There are five different behavior styles for dealing with conflict. These styles are: avoidance, competition, compromise, accommodation, and collaboration. After doing a self-assessment by using the conflict style exercise, I realize that I use several styles when dealing with conflict. The style differs with the person that I

the individuals to work for their goals, while supporting others. When collaborating one balances people and tasks concerns during conflict. This style requires the development of a new alternative to resolve the conflict, especially when needed to reach an agreement. Next is competition meaning that an individual approaches the conflict by emphasizing their personal goals and needs, without considering others. A competitive person prefers to view themselves as winners. When using competitive style one uses power, and focuses on winning, regardless of the potential negativity of the strategy. Avoidance was fourth on the list, meaning that an individual prefers to avoid and ignore the conflict. However, sometimes there are situations that it is advisable. My last style was accommodation, which is when an individual sets aside their own needs, that is in order to ensure that the needs of others are meeting. This style of approach is

In the problem between Trish and Dr. Ramos both sides are using the conflict avoidance approach. Dr. Ramos exhibits conflict avoidance because she knows that Trish is not performing well at work and that she does not pay overtime to Trish, but Dr. Ramos does not take the initiative to solve the problem. Trish exhibits conflict avoidance because one year ago, when she asked Dr. Ramos for a performance review and a raise of her salary, but Dr. Ramos took six months in providing Trish with both requests. Trish thought it was not worth it to go all over again with the same process of asking Dr. Ramos for anything.

Conflict as defined in the text is a process in which one party perceives that its interests are being opposed or negatively affected by another party (Hellriegel/Slocum, 2011). In the case of General Hospital, the two parties at odds are the CEO Mike Hammer and the physicians represented by the Director of Medicine Dr. Mark Williams. Mr. Hammer also faced opposition from the hospitals’ board of trustees. The conflict stemmed from the fact that the hospital was no longer competitive and was losing money. Mr. Hammer was unable to convince the physicians or the board to adhere to any cost containing measures or

Conflict and disagreement are inevitable in relationships. Anger is a natural emotion, and disagreements can be healthy sign of difference. Conflict usually occurs because certain needs are not being met - either within the relationship or outside or it. The object of conflict management is to ask for those needs to be met in a way that does not damage your relationship.

The major conflict that is occurring at General Hospital is financial in nature. The hospital is facing a potential nosedive in revenue as well a decrease in patients with better health care plans that generate better revenue. As a result, the CEO Mike Hammer is faced with the dilemma on how to cut cost to prevent the hospital from going under financially and facilitating a medical staff that seems to be in direct conflict with his previous decisions and perception on how to solve the problem.

Hammer has exhibited unfavorable interpersonal conflict-handling and poor emotional intelligence by not attempting to understand Dr. Mark Williams’, the director of medicine, point of view, hindering potential compromise or the creation of a win-win solution to the revenue issue.

One of the main elements in resolving conflicts is the ability to forgive. Forgiveness is

Within a neighboring community, compromise and sacrifice are a thing of necessity and need not be considered advantageous. A very good example will that which is displayed among the people of the Hadza and Zapotec cultures which profoundly are different in how go about living their daily life?s but still share a great similarity in how the resolve their conflicts. In the course of this paper, struggle within the two viewpoint culture and community will be discussed. According to Crapo (2013), culture is defined as ?a way of life of any individual or group of individuals.? For the two cultures identified, conflict resolution is not based on language, cultural failure or customs as the have nothing in common in those respect. The overall good of parties involved is the main reason why compromise is reached. According to Durham (1992), ?it is economically important that each culture rely on conflict resolution as opposed to other less productive measures that could lead to a less desirous outcome or even risk catastrophic loss.?

The unhealthy hospital case is about a hospital named Blake Memorial that has been in a very bad shape, lacks in providing the best quality of care, is in debt, and financially imbalanced. It is important for a healthcare set up to maintain balance in the financial system so the stakeholders and customers who are the patients their interests are met. If the hospital is lacking in providing the best quality of care for its community and the community is in high needs of the care than the CEO’s of the hospitals need to make a change. The patients (customers) look for getting the best services and better results from a hospital and the stakeholder’s looks for better profitable gain from their business by running the hospitals. In this case
