Sources of conflictWork or process relatedPersonalities incompatible
CONFLICTS
It’s simple (if not easy), Dr. Covey says, if you Make a Practice of Doing Two Things:
* “Before you begin, say to each other: ‘we agree that we will look for a new alternative.” You must be willing to let go entirely of your position to make room for the creative conception of a third way. Declare that you are willing to do this.
* “Always restate the other party’s position to his or her satisfaction before stating your own point of view.” You don’t have to accept it, just restate it until the other party is satisfied that you understand it. Comprehension seeds a sense of empathy. Articulating their view first defuses confrontation.
