Conflict Styles

Abstract

A free resource from Riverhouse ePress, publisher of " the conflict style inventory with a cross-cultural perspective. " To request permission to reproduce it, send a note to: center@riverhouseepress.com. Additional Resources: On the Riverhouse website, www.RiverhouseEpress.com, you can find useful resources including an introduction to conflict style inventories, a comparison of inventories, a history of Style Matters, a trainers' blog with ideas on leading workshops on conflict styles, and a long list of web resources on conflict style inventories Style Matters supports teaching of conflict resolution skills in a variety of training settings. You can design a full day workshop around it. Or you can work with its core ideas in an hour flat, if you have people take and score it on their own before the workshop. Style Matters has a lot of information useful to a solo reader, so users can continue to learn after the workshop. If you use the online version (see info on last page of this guide or online) and have people work through the tutorial on their own before arrival, you can use all of your workshop time for discussion and reflection on scores.
