Effective Conflict Resolution
Stop trying to win. Start finding the need.
Practical tools for staying connected through disagreement, at work and at home. For nurses and healthcare teams, leaders, and anyone whose work depends on people.
Presented by Danny Silk, MSW.
A short look at what Danny teaches in the course.
“If I can get at what you need, we are on our way to finding a solution.”
In conflict, most of us talk to win. Two people speak, nobody listens, and the solution that comes out meets one person's needs, or no one's. The better way is to become the listener, find the need on both sides, and build the solution together.
That is the shift this course teaches: lower the anxiety, let people see you, and build solutions that meet both sets of needs.
What you'll be able to do
Four short lessons, about 36 minutes of video. Tools you can use with your team this week.
Listen for the need
When tension rises, conversations turn into two speakers and no listeners. You'll learn to step into the listener role and search for what the other person needs.
- Why we forget there are two people when we're upset
- The speaker's job and the listener's job
- Saying "I'll be the listener right now"
- How the trust cycle turns met needs into trust
Get under the anger
Anger has juice that makes us feel powerful. You'll learn to find the hurt, fear, and powerlessness underneath, and say it in a way that keeps the conversation from exploding.
- The illusion of agreement
- Asking "What do you need to feel?"
- Why smart people get dumb under stress
- The I-message as springs that contain the explosion
Confront and stay connected
Confrontation doesn't need a winner and a loser. You'll see a real exchange between Danny and a member of his team, and learn to say "ouch" in a way that builds trust.
- Letting people see you
- Owning your part in a reply
- Bringing up a violation of a healthy culture
- Protecting relationships under pressure
