Assignment 2: Discussion—Not Exactly What You Planned

Handling a conflict situation requires tact and skill. In this course, you will learn effective ways to handle and resolve a conflict situation. Probably, the best way to bring a conflict situation under control is to understand the perspective of the other person. The other reason could be to establish a personality type that fits the person with whom you are dealing. Conflict resolution skill depends on personality, among other things, and you should try to understand your personality. In this assignment, you will assess the key aspects of your personality and evaluate them in the light of two personal conflict situations.

What would you do differently next time?
