If Arm Wrestling no solution to the conflict - Part 2
Conflict resolution is difficult. It feels like between a rock and a hard place. You are all involved in the growing spiral of negative emotions, each of you do your best to get your meaning. However, the problem is that often the situation worse. It poisons the well for future interaction. Consequently, Sally took a different route, less confrontational, more relational approach to Martha.
Sally had to determine exactly which song they wanted to doMarta on various subjects. Do not feel like anything too superficial or tangential to get, and not return to anger. Had a concrete and specific about what the problem was, how he felt about, and what he wanted to do as a result. But he is also sensitive and emotional intelligence on the situation of Martha and present their demands and arguments in a way that is respectful.
The next time I saw Sally Martha asked to speak in private.Sally began with the words: "Martha, I want you on your office wanted to get up last week to speak. When I need them again stretch, and I do not want this office is unprofessional, unfortunately, if you wanted auditors cleaning, were already the process of completing a report to me.
"The report was done by Friday and then we were all under the gun. There was no time for them to do both. As a result, we were too lateI did not want that to happen again if we do something to avoid.
"In the future I would like us to our efforts to coordinate. I would particularly like to consult with me when my bills on activities not directly related operations and I want to use to do the same with you as I am need more employees than normal for my projects. Together we can make the business can operate more efficiently and effectively. "
Since this is an opportune time, Sallydecided the question of the expenditure proposed audio-visual. "Martha, I know his concern about the cost structure of the business of purchasing software and equipment for webinars estimate this time, I think they are priceless Our best presentations for potential customers. I am now stands," They are effective art, and our customers expect those types of practices in their presentations, their offices would be. The So we have to order them. But I need your help. becauseYour concerns about money and your accuracy, I want you to search and find the best deals possible on this for the company and to report to me. "
Because Martha did not think the financial problem so easily solved, Sally argued that society does not really need to smooth the internet presentations. But when it did not work, tried to convince Sally that the takeover can and should be delayed for several months.
For each of the arguments of Martha'sSally said: "I'm sure you feel so, but ..." or "I can understand, as you might think, but ...." Each argument is irrelevant Sally sorry for Martha, but stated that he did what he wanted. He kept his arguments on what they saw and what she wanted, never criticized or accused Martha. Finally, Martha said that is not the case ... at least at this point ... Stop and discuss.
Going that extra mile to discuss the preparation of interpersonalMartha, Sally found was able to indicate what they wanted and got it. He felt better about themselves and let themselves be manipulated or not released. As a manager he was not sure the company is a partner and whine about "poor ol 'Martha-go, has no doubts about their years of service. Instead, Martha is a way to more cooperation to get Martha's current and the future when he is aware of anger and obstruction.
