The 5 Types of Conflict
January 12, 2023
Welcome to the Conflict Skills Podcast.
In this episode, I explain the 5 different types of conflict, how you can identify each kind and the kinds of strategies that work for responding. I am a professional mediator, and produce this podcast as a way to offer free training for people. My hope is that it helps you gain tools and knowledge that empower you to manage conflict more effectively.
I would love to hear from you, so please let me know how you find the podcast and any suggestions for future episodes.
Thanks for listening!
In this podcast, I explain the 5 different types of conflict:
- Data Conflict
- Interest Conflict
- Values Conflict
- Structural Conflict
- Relationship Conflict
Each type of conflict has different causes, and different factors that cause things to escalate. The different types of conflict also need a different response to effectively deal with the situation.
