Conflict Resolution Strategies
Many relational failures are a result of not having a clear plan to resolve conflicts based on common vision, common values and common procedures. Life-giving relationships do not accidently emerge in our lives. It takes open, honest and honorable communication to grow and protect relationships. As a matter of fact any relationship worth having will have challenges, pressures and changes to process which should indicate that we need plan to resolve conflict. Sadly many relationships end up in a state of toleration versus a celebration of one another’s life.
Common vision
Why do we have a relationship; what is its purpose and how will it be nurtured it over the years?
Where are we headed; what will the desired results of our relationship several years down the road?
Common Values
Core-values are the core-beliefs from which we manage our lives. Core-values are not necessarily all beneficial or helpful, because many are shaped from places of hurt which generally are self protecting and self serving.
On what basis do we make our decisions? Do we have agreed upon desired-values on which we can learn to establish the very best relationship?
Common Procedures
