Scenario: Conflict between Team Members in a Software Development Project
Conflict Resolution Techniques:
1. Active Listening (Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument)
- Ask open-ended questions to understand each team member's perspective.
- Summarize and rephrase their statements to ensure comprehension.
- Use active listening cues such as nodding, eye contact, and mirroring.
2. Interest-Based Negotiation (Fisher and Ury)
- Identify the underlying interests of each team member.
- Explore and discuss areas of common interest.
- Seek mutually acceptable solutions that address the underlying needs.
3. Collaborative Problem Solving (Daniels and Walker)
- Define the problem objectively as a shared challenge.
- Brainstorm and evaluate potential solutions.
- Work together to implement the best solution.
4. BATNA Analysis (Fisher and Ury)
- Determine the team's "best alternative to a negotiated agreement" (BATNA).
- Assess the consequences of accepting or rejecting a proposed solution.
- Use this knowledge to strengthen the negotiation position.
5. Facilitation (Anderson and Meyers)
- Appoint a neutral facilitator to guide the conflict resolution process.
- Establish ground rules for productive communication.
- Encourage team members to express their views and perspectives respectfully.
Steps for Applying the Techniques:
1. Identify the Conflict: Determine the specific issue causing the conflict.
2. Gather Information: Listen actively to each team member's perspective and interests.
3. Analyze the Conflict: Use interest-based negotiation and BATNA analysis to understand the underlying needs and options.
4. Generate Solutions: Brainstorm and evaluate potential solutions collaboratively.
5. Reach Agreement: Facilitate a discussion to reach a mutually acceptable solution.
6. Implement and Monitor: Implement the solution and monitor its progress to ensure ongoing success.
