Recommended: Resolving conflicts

No, in my opinion not every conflict has a winner. I feel like both in my personal life and in some stories the conflict always gets resolved, but doesn't necessarily have a winner. Stories like "Amigos Brother" don't need a winner, just a resolution. Both Felix and Antonio face some obstacles, but at the end they overcame those obstacles and were happy so didn't they both win? I've also been through something personal that didn't have a winner. Riley and I had been mad at each other for a while and didn't talk about, and when we realized it was doing us no good we got help from someone bigger. I consider this a conflict that got resolved but didn't have a winner because we were both unhappy during that time. When this conflict

    Jack London’s “To Build a Fire” and John Updike’s “A&P” were very different, but interesting stories. Both authors chose a different approach to their chosen tone. Updike wrote in a more laid back and entertaining way, while London, on the other hand, chose to write in a more formal and serious way. The authors also developed much different characters. London’s main character was much older and rugged than the complicated teenage girls and grocery clerk that Updike chose to focus his story around. The most significant difference, however, is the choice of conflict. Updike’s conflict was a simple one focusing on man versus man, but London’s story had many conflicts that dealt with much more serious issues like, for example, life and death.

    The ethical dilemma in my conflict is that I, as an individual providing information and listening to the stories of domestic violence survivors, do not allow my past life experience effect the outcomes of clients. Being that my agency oversees the eighteen domestic violence agencies in the State of Connecticut, I work with a very diverse population and at times encounter situations where self-disclosure is a complex issue. Self-disclosure to clients raises numerous boundary issues which in turn can result in conflicts of interest with a relationship with a client. By over identifying with clients, I risk boundary line becoming blurred and the possibility of treating my own needs and experiences rather than my clients. The Code of Ethics (2015) states that a social worker should not let their own person problems interfere with their professional judgement and performance which can jeopardize the best interest of the people for whom they have a

  • Sources of Conflict and Dealing with it

    "There is immutable conflict at work in life and in business, a constant battle between peace and chaos. Neither can be mastered, but both can be influenced. How you go about it is the key to success" (Phillip Night 20th century businessman) A team, theoretically, should work like a well-oiled machine. Like a state of the art machine most enlightened people should be able to function peacefully for the stated purpose of geting the job done. However, oil can be forgotten, a scheduled maintenance item missed, and the machine slows or stops altogether. The same happens in a team. If one person is upset with another person, something gets lost or undone; progress and productivity will slow or disintegrate to nothing creating chaos or conflict. Resolving this conflict is paramount, and should take into consideration the ideas and philosophies of the members of the team, thereby moving forward with the common goal of peace.. Resolution occurs when sources are identified, choices in how we respond are made, and by instituting and recognizing preventative measures.
