Description

In preparation for this discussion, review content on p. 44-54 of the book Interpersonal Conflict by Wilmot & Hocker (2010). It explains what conflict is and what the defining elements of conflict are.

To comment on this discussion you will need to read the assigned section of the book p. 44-54 by Wilmot & Hocker and respond by 150 words. The first time, post your original comment following the instructions below

STEP : Follow-up post:

Respond to a participant post by 150 words. Use one of the metaphors described by another student to generate practical solutions. For example, if a metaphor said that conflict is like flying an airplane into the ground, then what do you need to do?An example response would be to “jump out of the plane” or “call for help.”Transform that into the real-life behaviors. In this example, maybe the person needs to exit the relationship, or just needs a two-day break. Another way to phrase this is, “What are the options inside the metaphor?”

Angelaughter For me conflict is like dangling over a cliff at the end of a bungee cable. You don't have to take the jump, but, if you happen to jump - or are pushed over the edge - it may be scary for a moment but you in the end, you'll emerge from the jump . . . mostly unscathed. When I asked three other people to complete the sentence "Conflict is like . . ." here are some responses I got were: Conflict is like a bargaining table. Conflicts are insecurities pretending to be strong. Conflict is death. It's inevitable, but the solution depends on our attitude and approach. I feel the metaphors from my friends and co-workers are generally transformative. When comparing them, I see an overarching theme of insight and a growth mind-set. There is not a negative or limiting connotation to the metaphors, my own included. Although everyone will have their own perception of conflict, that has been formed by their personal experiences, the metaphors presented here project conflict to have the potential to go a variety of ways, depending on what each individual is willing to contribute or take away from the conflict.
