Problem Solving/Conflict Resolution
Conflict is a natural and very common occurrence in human relationships; especially in groups. Conflict arises because of a person’s self-interest or if they feel their values and ideas are challenged. It should not be something to be afraid of. By thinking of conflict as a problem to be solved, not a battle to be won, a group can work through challenging times and come out cohesive and victorious.
The Problem Solving and Conflict Resolution tool box holds tools that can help a group through a conflict or a problem. By using these tools and remembering to communicate and to be open to more than one way to solve a problem, the problem will soon be solved.
