Closing

In this module, we began our time together thinking about conflict and how and why it occurs. We explored different language to identify power dynamics, explored different language to identify the ways we resolve conflict, analyzed complicated scenarios, and walked through how to have effective dialogue to resolve conflict. 

The more prepared we are to resolve conflict, the more empowered we will in our workplaces and in relationships with our colleagues. It’s also extremely valuable to think about a plan to care for ourselves when conflict happens and commit to taking those steps to care for ourselves.
