<strong>MGMT</strong><strong>570</strong> <strong>LSI</strong> <strong>Conflict</strong> <strong>Paper</strong><br />
As you review the <strong>LSI</strong> conflict self-development guide, we are<br />
reminded of how pervasive conflict is in our everyday lives. No one<br />
is immune from conflict. Yet, how conflict affects each of us is<br />
determined by both the situation and how we cope; conflict can be<br />
both a help and a hindrance: it can lead us to more creative and<br />
productive relationships, or it can destroy our relationships.<br />
Whether conflict impacts us positively or negatively depends in<br />
large measure on how constructively we deal with it.<br />
To this end, the <strong>LSI</strong> conflict exercise is a tool designed to help you<br />
learn to deal more constructively with the conflict situations in your<br />
life. More specifically, the instrument and self-development guide<br />
will help you identify and understand how your thinking patterns<br />
and coping behavior influence your ability to deal with conflict<br />
situations. In addition, you’ll discover how your thoughts and<br />
behaviors help or block constructive conflict solutions and learn how<br />
to approach conflict situations more effectively. The paper should<br />
not exceed six pages in length, excluding the <strong>LSI</strong> circumplex that<br />
should be attached to the paper. (110 points total)<br />
Your assignment is to complete the Life Styles <strong>Conflict</strong> Inventory by<br />
addressing the following points.<br />
1. Describe your personal conflict styles. Focus on your dominant<br />
and weakest styles (include a copy of your circumplex). (40 points)<br />
2. Assess the impact of your styles on your effectiveness. Which<br />
of your styles are working for you in accomplishing your goals, and<br />
which styles are working against you? Provide specific examples.<br />
(30 points)<br />
3. Identify a conflict style for change, and briefly define an action<br />
plan to implement the change. Consider the steps defined in the<br />
self-improvement planner on pp. 16–18 in the self-development<br />
guide to help you in this process. (30 points)<br />
4. Conclude by providing a brief reflective statement regarding this<br />
exercise. (10 points)
