Your conflict management style is... Accommodating
Congrats, friend! By completing this quiz, you've shown a commitment to managing conflicts and creating positive social environments. According to your responses, your style is accommodating...
So what does that actually mean? When conflict comes to a head, you may forsake your own needs to make the other party happy. And because of that, you're more likely to give in to their demands...
Although your accommodating style keeps the peace, it's not the most effective for getting your point across. Sometimes it's worth it to speak up and stand strong in your truth. Trust me, you've got this!

3 Tips for Managing Conflict and Transforming Foes into Friends
1. Accept the Conflict
If you think conflict is something to be avoided at all costs, it's time for a little reframing. Here's the thing, conflict is part of life, and, believe it or not, it can actually strengthen your relationships. Butting heads gives us an opportunity to express our deep concerns, and when you do that without coming off as aggressive, it creates movement and momentum.
2. Practice Active Listening
There's a huge difference between being heard and feeling heard, friend. When you make someone feel heard, you earn their trust and gain insight into their situation. So how do you actually do that? Start by using body language to communicate your interest: eye contact, leaning in, and smiling. Ask questions and summarize what the other person says!
3. Save the Judgement
Especially in tense situations, it's natural to have strong emotions and thoughts about what the other person is saying, but it's safest to save those judgements for later. In the moment, try to keep calm by breathing deeply and leaning back in your seat with both feet firmly planted on the ground. Remember, sometimes silence speaks louder than words.

Your conflict management style is... Avoiding
Congrats, friend! By completing this quiz, you've shown a commitment to managing conflicts and creating positive social environments. According to your responses, your style is avoiding.
So what does that actually mean? When conflict comes to a head, you try not to get involved. You may postpone the confrontation or simply pretend it doesn't exist. Let sleeping dogs lie, right?
While this can sometimes be advantageous, if you're not careful, it could lead to issues down the road. If left too long, unresolved tension can create anxiety and frustration. It's time to get proactive!

Your conflict management style is... Compromising
Congrats, friend! By completing this quiz, you've shown a commitment to managing conflicts and creating positive social environments. According to your responses, your style is compromising...
So what does that actually mean? You always want to find the middle ground. You enter into confrontations determined to find a solution that benefits everyone. You understand that a good outcome is one that ends in camaraderie — not competition.
Although your compromising style keeps the peace, sometimes it might create stagnation. It's worth it to speak up, stand strong in your truth, and take a little more than your share. Trust me, you've got this!

So what does that actually mean? You turn conflicts into creative art. You come up with innovative solutions to the problems no one else can crack. You're sensitive to others' interests and involve them in your process whenever possible.
Though you don't have many weaknesses to speak of, make sure you don't get too caught up in the process and forfeit your needs. Sometimes getting back to the basics is necessary. Trust me, you've got this!

Your conflict management style is... Competing
Congrats, friend! By completing this quiz, you've shown a commitment to managing conflicts and creating positive social environments. According to your responses, your style is competing...
So what does that actually mean? When conflict comes to a head, you skip the small talk and cut to the chase. This means you get results QUICK. On top of that, once you decide on your ideal outcome, you're unwavering.
Although your competing style slays, it's not the most effective for fostering friendships. Sometimes it's worth it to cut others some slack and hear their side of the story. Trust me, you've got this!
