Conflict can occur for any reason with anyone you may have in interaction with in your life. One reason this may occur is due to, opposing viewpoints and communication between one another happen both verbally and nonverbally while others ignore and stay away from someone. However, there are many aspects in which we can handle these type of situations. Five conflict management styles are, “Competing”, “Collaborating”, “Compromising”, “Avoiding”, and “Accommodating”. Personally, when I find myself in an interpersonal conflict with a certain individual I am especially close to I tend to collaborate with the person through communication and comprehension. With these two collaborating styles, I have noticed that me and that other person in my life communicate between one another in a very thoroughly manner as well as exposing ourselves to what was really meant during the time of conflict. Often times, collaborating ends in a win win situation where both parties are able to agree and result in problem solving instead of taking something away from one and going along with the other. Although, the system of collaborating between one another is time consuming, this type of communication is mostly focused on the issue rather than the personal emotions of either person who take part in the conflict.
