Alternative dispute resolution

Each person has their own strategy, style, and tactics for how they deal with conflict (Folger, Poole, Stutman, 2013 p. 136).

Styles are unconscious and do not require planning ahead (Folger, Poole, Stutman, 2013 p. 136). A competing style is classified as high in assertiveness and low in cooperation An accommodating style is low in assertiveness and high in cooperative. An avoiding style…

This case does not alter my decision because in this case of attorney-client privilege they were willing to make a deal to protect their client rather than present the truth (Siegel, Schmalleger, and Worrall, 2014). Many lawyers do not totally grasp the complexity of the attorney-client privilege, therefore they do not know and comprehend exactly which communications are protected and which are not (Marcum, 2015).

Greed and Grievance – a complementary approach While many scholars dealing with the academic or policy implication of this debate align themselves with either the greed or grievance camp, others believe that it is the combination of the two that has the biggest explanatory power when it comes to exploring the motives behind intra-state conflict.

You have to know who is an ally and who is against the resolution.
