Assessing the Relationship between Leadership and Conflict <strong>Management</strong> Styles<br />

Research<br />

We find a close correspondence between perception <strong>of</strong><br />

management and conflict resolution styles with respect to the<br />

Team <strong>Management</strong> style and the collaborative conflict<br />

management style. Of the total sample <strong>of</strong> 57 respondents 47<br />

respondents see themselves as having a team management and a<br />

collaborative conflict management style. This close<br />

correspondence between the team management and the<br />

collaborative conflict management holds across all three sub<br />

samples –– managers, senior managers and top executives. Thus<br />

our results contradict the Bernardin Alvares finding that there is<br />

no correspondence between management and conflict resolution<br />

style perception by managers at least as far as the team<br />

management leadership and collaborative conflict resolution style<br />

is concerned.<br />
