Ethical Communication A Tool for Resolving Conflict
Seven Steps to Successful Conflict Resolution • Stay Clear • Commitment • Resolution • Honesty • Information • Listen • The Means is the End
Helpful Hints • Prepare: jot down notes (e.g. what the problem is; a concrete example; what you would like to see changed) and practice what you'd like to say • Agree on a specific course of action and write it down • If it doesn’t work call in help – a mediator, the team or group
Not Too Late… Homework Two Truths and a Lie • Write down three facts about yourself on a sheet of paper. Two of them are true; one is a lie. • One at a time each person will read off their “facts.” The group will discuss the information (the fact giver should remain quiet) and will vote individually on which fact is the lie. • Scoring: A point is given to the fact giver for each person they fooled. A point is also given to each participant that guessed the lie correctly. The person with the most points after all participants have shared their facts wins the game. • Report back tomorrow who won!
