Leadership Skills Worksheet: Conflict Resolution
Leader's tip (Calm, listen, options, agree): The four steps in order: calm down → listen to both sides → find options → agree on a plan. Helps: a calm voice, saying “I feel…”, listening without blame, finding a middle way, apologising sincerely. Makes it worse: shouting back, taking sides at once, name-calling, bringing up old fights, spreading gossip.
