An expanded Conflict Resolution Presentations which gives more practical advice on how to use the information. I had members of the class give real life examples of Conflict Causes as listed on pages 13-18 . This helped bring out some very REAL issues (without centering anyone out) that we were able to provide resolutions for. Worked well. Good Luck.
