CONFLICT MANAGEMENT IN HUMAN SERVICES

Conflict in the workplace is inevitable, whether dealing with an internal conflict within yourself or an external conflict with others. Understanding your natural response to conflict will help you build your conflict response repertoire and perform more effectively in leadership roles, resulting in improved outcomes for service users.

For this Assignment, you assess your conflict management style, the degree to which your style would be effective for resolving conflicts in human services settings, and what you can do to turn your limitations in this area into strengths.
