How to Resolve Conflicts Peacefully?
• Peaceful resolution of conflicts requires forethoughts and compassion. • It requires the willingness to find an alternate solution that could lead to a win-win situation. • The reason why conflicts exist in the first place is that the solutions are mutually exclusive. • If you can find an alternate inclusive solution (rather than an exclusive solution), then you will resolve the conflict peacefully. • Our research shows that “fighting it out” not only would not resolve a conflict but also escalate the conflict into a crisis because it exacerbates the competing interests even further.
