Strategies for Resolving Conflicts and Promoting Healthy Discussions


If you are unsure about someone's statement, ask for clarification rather than making assumptions


Seek to understand the intent behind their words and avoid jumping to conclusions


Use neutral language when seeking clarification to avoid sounding confrontational


Look for areas of agreement or shared interests to build upon and find common ground


Highlight points of agreement before addressing areas of disagreement


Focus on finding solutions or compromises that benefit all parties involved


Provide feedback in a constructive and respectful manner, focusing on the issue at hand rather than attacking the person
Use "I" statements to express your thoughts and feelings, avoiding accusatory language
Offer suggestions or alternative perspectives to encourage further discussion and growth
