Harmful approaches that people use in dealing with conflict:
- Win at all cost. It’s like a shootout at the OK Corral. It’s quick, brutal, and destructive.
- Pretend it doesn’t exist. If you hear no evil, see no evil, and speak no evil, evil will not cease to exist.
- Whine about it. Winners aren’t whiners and whiners aren’t winners. Playing the victim doesn’t cure the conflict. It just irritates everybody.
- Keep score. People who keep a record of wrongs can’t ever start over fresh. And nobody can ever get “even.”
- Pull rank. Using position never really resolves the conflict. It merely postpones it.
- White flag it. Quitting is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
None of these approaches will give give the help a person needs to resolve conflict in a healthy way.
