Module 1: Listening Skills

Listening is the foundational skill for conflict resolution. It requires a sustained effort to remain in the present moment and suspend judgment.

  • Understand key attributes of listening
  • Understand barriers to listening
  • Correctly explain, using examples demonstrating the four levels of listening
Module 2: The Conflict Episode

Conflict begins when you become aware that something you care about is threatened. Understanding how the conflict episode unfolds and how to take action to avoid escalation will increase the possibility of resolution.

  • Define conflict and the implication of the definition         
  • Demonstrate a clear understanding of the conflict episode          
  • Can explain the dynamics of conflict escalation, including distributive and integrative solution paths    
Module 3: Conflict Management – Solution Paths

In this session, participants explore the three sources of conflict and their distinctive solution paths. Using what was practiced in the previous workshops, you will learn how to find integrative space within a conflict situation.

  • Can use the Neutral Statement method to determine type of conflict      
  • Demonstrate a clear understanding of the three types of conflict: Factual, Interest Based and Behavioral
  • Can explain conflict de-escalation by using examples of the solution path for each type of conflict
Module 4: Collaborative Decision-Making

How organizations manage conflict reflects on their ability for collaborative decision-making. Learn how the addition of dialogical skills will work with the previous training modules to create an environment for collaboration and effective decision-making.

  • Understand the meaning and intent of dialogue
  • Demonstrate use of Humble Inquiry questioning techniques to achieve “listening to understand”
