Talking when you disagree

Conflict Resolution

Published by: NS KORAK team

Ana and Marko point at a bridge connecting their two different ideas on a whiteboard.
AnaDifferent ideas, but the same goal.
MarkoLet's take the best of both.

Disagreement does not have to be a fight. A recipe for a calm, clear talk.

Situation

You and a colleague have completely different ideas for the same project.

The goal is not to win, but to reach the best solution together.

Steps to apply

  1. Start with what you agree on.
  2. Speak in first person: "I am worried that…" instead of "You always…"
  3. Ask: "What matters most to you here?"
  4. Propose one shared solution and a check-in date.
