About My Conflict Management Strategy
When I discussed how we feel about conflict with my group member, each people would feel uncomfortable almost all the time when we conflict. I could predict that answer that everyone feel conflict unconfortable, but it was interesting for me that someone(I am not sure, but Kaoru?) said "When I am certainly sure my win, the conflict is confortable." I learned the situation influences our feeling when we face conflict.
According to a How You Act in Conflicts paper, my conflict management strategy is "Problem Solving". It is true, and exactly I try to find some solutions and to keep my relationship as much as possible. When I face conflicts, I want to be out of the conflict as soon as possible. However, at the same time, Ido not want people to be involved in the probrem and want to keep peacefully.
Recently the cell phone is becoming the usual communication tool with people, especially e-mail, but indeed I do not like it. When I face the conflict with someone and really want to solve the problem, I should meet him face-to-face and discuss our problem. I like the way best. Compered with the way to finding solution, this way is smoother and better to keep my relationship.
Even if it is difficult for me to solve the conflict, I should not avoid it. I have to face the conflict. Of course my conflict management strategy is "Problem Solving" but in order to solve the conflict, the most important things for me is "Face to Face" and then I try to disciss and look for the solution, and keep the relationship.
Hi, Kanako!
ReplyDeleteI like your attitude to conflict, "Face to Face." I tend to give up my goal to keep the relationship. So, I will try to deal with conflict as you do.
