CONFLICT MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP
v.4a (@film clip analysis-NGT -+ special (sub)teams +  mini-presentations) 

W.I.G.4/5/6e

LAST UPDATED 11/23/13

   
 Rationale:
Conflict  is  Good!

►In other words: Conflict in groups is inevitable but if managed appropriately, it actually can lead to better decisions/solutions and  better interpersonal relations. This occurs because the conflict forces the groups members  to acknowledge what isn't working -- on whatever level [ideological / procedural / ego-based[affective]  .

 

►Every person tends to display his/her own individual style of dealing with conflict ( remember the "dual concerns/Blake Mouton grid').   However, on the group level there are other, broader CM approaches that aim to help the group as-a-whole to do what is best for managing the various types of conflict.

 

►This workshop activity will give you an opportunity to view some moments of group conflict & group conflict management - in action and  then match what you see with the principles &  techniques covered in your text & the online slideshows.

   
   
Procedure: ●step 1 /  View  the designated film clips depicting interpersonal conflict within certain  ongoing groups  (If possible, view on your own,  in advance.   The full 12 Angry Men is available in YouTube; specifications for the specific scene are listed below.  Some Kind of Monster - disc 1 may be harder to find online.  Some viewing will also be done in class. )
 

●step 2 /  With your mini-team mates [ see special groupings below] , analyze what you have seen by comparing & matching it to  the items you have read  on conflict and conflict management:
             > Chapter 9 [5e]   (Chapter 7-4e)
             > 2 Conflict Resolution slide shows
                     - in class & Blackboard: Approaches to Group Conflict  & Management
                     - in class &  Blackboard: Integrative Conflict Resolution skills  [self reflection , seeing the other persons perspective, using refocusing questions , paraphrasing , reciprocity]
 (Portions from both SldeShws to be viewed in class. View the rest on your own via Blackboard.)
>

 ●step 3 /   Ultimately, each mini-team will present its insights & findings to the rest of the class in a  3-4 minute, "debrief" presentation in class.* This semester, all of these presentations will occur on  Mon 5/9

 *RECOMMENDED FORMAT: Summarize the mini-team insights via POWERPOINT: 1-3 slides, MAX. Use the slides to save time & consolidate your insights. 
   
   
Groupings/Assignments:   go to directly to section AA     /    go to directly to section CC
   
 AA:  team analysis work sessions = 12/2/13, 12/4/13,  (12/6/13- after test),
