Assignment
Reference: Pluralsight video "Conflict Resolution in the Workplace" by Stephen Haunts.
Research a current domestic or international conflict in the cyber domain.
As a way of checking for your understanding of the nature of conflict as described in the video, write a 1/2-page to 1-page methodology for resolving the conflict using Microsoft Word that addresses the following:
• Identify the reason for the conflict and the opposing forces
• Accurately identify the key political figures that impact the outcome or resolution of the conflict
• If you were involved with the resolution of the conflict, what style of conflict resolution would you use--the competing shark, the collaborating owl, the avoiding turtle, the accommodating teddy bear, or the compromising fox--and why?
• Do you think in our current political environment we may take the easy way out and try to sweep the conflict under the rug?
• There is one simple widely used method to resolve common conflict that goes by the acronym DESC that stands for Describe, Express, Specify, Consequences. Do you think this method could be used to resolve the conflict you identified? Do you think methods for conflict resolution in the workplace are the same as geological conflicts? Why or why not?
