The accommodation style is when the less powerful individuals such as employees are expected to accommodate more often and to a greater degree than more powerful individuals such as bosses. I will sometimes use the accommodation style when I am with my family. Whenever we all want to go do something, whether it be going to the movies or going for a hike, I will suggest things to do or find something we can all agree on. I will usually just do what they want to do as long as I get to hang out with them. I also use it with friends when I do not know what sounds fun to go do and I will again just agree to what sounds best. The compromising style is attempting to resolve a conflict by giving up on something to get something in return. A time when I used the comprising style was when I went to a music festival my friends and we all were not able to get to see the all of the bands we all wanted to see so we all made a compromise. We would first see all the bands that we all wanted to see all together. From there we decided based on who has seen which band how many times and if they wanted to see a band they have been dying to see or just wanted …show more content…
Whenever an argument starts to break out with either my friends, family, or it could even be someone I have recently met. I do not argue with people very often, but when it does happen, I usually try to either avoid it entirely or stop when it just starts to get completely ridiculous. I am a person who does not like conflict so I try to avoid as much as I possibly can. A lot of the time arguing is pointless and not fun at all. A time when I used the avoiding style was when I was arguing with my parents about where we all should go for break. They were mainly picking my sister’s side and I was trying to argue my case but after about 10 to 15 minutes it began to become a dumb argument and I just left saying I wasn’t going to argue anymore and we will figure it out later
A compromise is when two or more parties in disagreement reach an agreement that does not give all sides exactly what they want, but enough of what they want so that they can be happy. Compromise is the best possible solution to a conflict however it does not always work. One needs only to look at situations such as the Bosnia-Herzegovina to see that. During the events prior to the American Civil War, many different compromises were made in an attempt to impede the growing disagreements. However this merely prolonged the inevitable. The differences between North and South were far to great and compromise did not stand a chance at preventing the impending conflict. This was most clearly shown in the ways in which the three main compromises, the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850 and the Kansas-Nebraska Act, failed.
The definition of a compromise is an agreement or a settlement of a dispute that is reached by each side making concessions. The conflict of compromising is that is shows the weakness in a leader. If a leader does not show compromise ever, they are bound to fail one time or another. When leaders do show compromise in certain situations, they tend to be more successful. In “The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,” by William Shakespeare, it is necessary for leaders to compromise in order to succeed.
At the start of the semester, my oblivious state of nature associating with the Chinese culture reached an unacceptable level. Implementing a necessary change, I decided to educate myself on different cultures starting with China. I failed to ponder that such a rich, deep culture existed outside America. Encompassed by this country’s unique yet suffocating melting pot culture, my outlook believed ideas such as uniformity between American Chinese food and Authentic Chinese food. After this course, my bigot perspective widened as I witnessed diversity in the world. Before this class, when I thought of Chinese food, my connotation jumped to thoughts associated with chop suey, but as I progressed my education, my mindset gradually pondered foods like steamed buns or “New Year Cakes” with authentic Chinese food.
Decisions are difficult, especially between two opposing parties determined to get their way. Most likely, some sort of agreement called a compromise is reached. Compromise, a seemingly perfect concept, can be an essential part of success as it resolves conflicts on both an international or personal level and benefits both sides of any argument. However, if this tool is used incorrectly by means of overuse, underuse, or simply wrong timing, that perfection turns into detriment.
As a child we learned how to share and be fair with others when we never wanted to but never knew why it occurred. When I was growing up I eventually learned that being fair or in other words having compromise can help find a middle ground and both can feel satisfied with the outcome at the end. Compromising is way to cooperate with others in a stressful environment and learning to be around them can be difficult. Conflicts are bound to occur. When hearing the word
When it comes to young children being in different settings from a self-contained to an inclusion to a resource room, I don’t honestly think at this young age they notice a real difference. I see the students doing this as part of their daily routine when in an inclusion room going to a resource room then back to their inclusion classroom. Children who are in a self-contained classroom and are with mainstreamed into an inclusion classroom may or may not like it, depends on the child. I have seen both scenarios and I have learned that some children do resist change.
With a competing style, resolving is the only strategy that could complement it for it is all about a zero-sum orientation where it is a win or lose power struggle. In a strategy to attain that outcome, competing individuals can only look to resolving to remove the
Felix Frankfurter once said, “the most constructive way of resolving conflicts is to avoid them.” which means evading the conflicts is the best way to resolve the conflicts.In the other words, if we don’t want to face the conflicts, we should stay away from them and try to not get involved in.However, in my personal opinion, I disagree with this quote since the conflicts will still surround us even though we try to avoid them. Moreover, if the conflicts are initiated by us or just comes to us, to avoid the conflicts will not help us to resolve them.
Positionality as a concept is believed to be the general aspects that positions people within their immediate environments. This concept is aimed at viewing the way people see the world based on their different embodied locations. In general, positionality comprises of many dimensions of social identity, which has been instrumental in shaping our personalities within our immediate environment. Some of these dimensions of social identity which we are going to analyze in this paper include the following race, skin color, ethnicity, nationality, first language, gender, gender expression, age, sexual orientation, religious or spiritual belief system, ability, disability, and sense of place.
I participated in a conflict management style quiz that was created by Reginald Adkins to see what style I followed. The style that I tend to follow is Harmonizing. I did find this a little surprising because I usually stick to my guns. I will debate with just about anyone, especially if I feel that I am right about something (Steve A. Beebe, 2008, p. 204)
Whether it is marketing within franchised restaurants or major retail banks, marketing plays a large role in providing assistance for companies to reach goals such as high profit. Subway sandwiches, a world-wide franchised restaurant, uses marketing and marketing tools not only for increased sales but to create an image in the consumers mind. This essay will define and discuss positioning, as well as a case study on how the Subway franchise has positioned their product. As one cannot climb a mountain from the top, market segmentation and market targeting will be looked at in order for better understanding on positioning.
Compromise involves bargaining and mutually giving up something to reach a settlement. It can be used to get a quick resolution, with the prevention of further escalation (Robin, 2002). Compromise usually involves high to moderate emotional levels, high to low skill levels, moderate clarity of both goals, moderate status of the relationship, win-win attitude toward authority, moderate concern for traditions, and moderate fear of punishment.
This elasticity in your approach to choosing which conflict style is best for the current situation is a key to managing conflict. No one style of conflict resolution will work all the time when addressing issues. You must remain flexible to other people’s wants, needs, direction, criticism, schedules, moods, temperament, and a myriad of other things in life. If there is one thing in life that will never change it is the fact that everything is going to change! There is nothing you can do to stop it, so the quicker you learn how to adapt to the changes the better off you will be. The ability to change your approach to dealing with conflict better prepares you to face the interpersonal challenges that will eventually come your way. I believe it is important to also remember that you cannot win every battle with every person you encounter. Knowing that you cannot fix or solve every problem with everyone is very helpful in reducing stress and managing difficult situations with others. My father dislikes when I use this cliché but sometimes, it is what it
It is very important to try and keep a civil tone because many times how you voice things may lead to different reactions. Yelling and screaming at people will not always help get your point across. Many times it makes things worse because it becomes hard to listen and understand what you are trying to explain. Getting into heated arguments with one’s spouse or partner is very common. I understand because I have been in plenty arguments with my boyfriend. Usually it leads to us yelling at one another in which leads to nothing. In the end we never solve the problem and end up more frustrated with one another. In this lesson I learned that talking in a civil tone actually makes the conversation smoother. It allows both of us get our message across so we can have a productive
Interior design is a complicated profession. It is sometimes referred to as interior architecture and often confused with interior decorating. It involves the design, organization and planning of an interior structure rather than just refinishing and furnishing existing interior spaces. It involves managing a business, hopefully meeting the desires of the client and delivering to them an interior environment that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. There is a lot more to interior design than first meets the eye.
