Nonviolent Communication and Conflict Management
Share at least two strategies you have learned about that might help you manage or resolve the conflict more productively, and why these strategies might be effective. For example, could you suggest a compromise?
Two strategies that I have learned about that might help me manage or resolve the disagreement more productively, is one to think about the nonviolent communication which is based on the principles of nonviolence-- the natural state of compassion when no violence is present in the heart (The Center for Nonviolent Communication, n.d). The other strategy is using the three R’s which are respect, reciprocal, and relationship. I believe these strategies will be important because they will allow me to be able to be mindful when I am talking and making sure that I am being considerate without attacking them. I feel that using the nonviolent communication and using the three R’s will more than likely make the conversation and conflict more productive. Yes, I believe that somewhere in the conflict there could be a compromise.
Could you look for a broader range of solutions to your disagreement?
Yes, I believe that there could be a broader range of solutions to my disagreements. I think that listening could be a broader range of solutions.
Could you use some of the principles of nonviolent communication or the 3 R's to better help you resolve this conflict?
Yes I believe that the three principles of nonviolent communicator or the three R’s to better help me resolve the conflict like I made mention before on the two strategies above.

Hi Myisha,
ReplyDeleteI found the two strategies that you chose to solve disagreement to be very important. I agree with you that these strategies would allow us to be mindful when we speak and interact with others. In fact, these strategies can calm any situation because it would help us listening to the conflict without reacting swiftly or angrily. Thank you for sharing
