What Trainers Say About Style Matters

People really liked it and commented a lot about how much they got out of it.....helped people understand each other.... created a lot of camaraderie and understanding... helped people talk about their feelings about a key person who uses the Directing style a lot.... People came out of the workshop feeling positive about themselves. I was really pleased with the whole experience.

Conflict Management Starts with Self Management

YOUR RESPONSES IN CALM

Now we turn to settings of Calm, when differences are apparent but emotions are not yet greatly stirred. Here we pay special attention to your lowest scores. These suggest “low-hanging fruit” for expanding your options and sense of control in the midst of differences.

Each of the five styles has a valuable role to play in the life of every person. When you score low in a style, you may be under-using that style.

The Calm stage of conflict is a great time to experiment with responses different from your usual ones. We normally function “on autopilot” in this stage and respond from habit. Yet since we are not highly stressed we have access to our best inner resources of reflection. Change is relatively easy when we switch off autopilot  and consciously choose our response. By experimenting with greater use of styles you are less comfortable with, you can increase your sense of control in the midst of differences.
