SLP Assignment Expectations

• The intent of the SLP is for you to apply the theoretical and general aspects covered in each module, to real-life and practical cases.


• Conflict is an integral part of our lives, and we encounter it in every aspect of our personal and professional activities.


• Surely, you have observed (or even participated in) some form of conflict at your workplace, be it a simple but heated interpersonal matter, or a full-scale organizational dispute.


• The SLP will always have three short parts you will need to address in EACH module, as described below.


• Focus should be put on sections II + III.


• As each module deals with a different topic, you can choose on describing and analyzing the same conflict in all modules, or widening your scope and describing different incidents.

Part I: Background and Settings (in about ½ a page):

• The Organization: Without revealing proprietary information, describe the organization of your choice. (It should be one that you are familiar with, so preferably it would be easier if it were your own).


• The Conflict: Describe the workplace conflict issue you have chosen to write about.


• What is the underlying problem or difference?


• Who are the parties or sides in this conflict?


• Choose a Side: Choose one of the parties or sides in the conflict and let me know of your choice.

Part II: How Was It Managed? (in about 1 full page):

• Describe "your chosen" side's decisions and/or behaviors and/or actions to the following:


• What were the underlying sources of the conflict: Personal or substantive? Explain which criteria you used to defined it as personal or substantive.


• What negative effect did this conflict have on the goal attainment of your organization? How were personal/working relationships affected?

Part III: What Would You Have Done? (in about 1 full page):

• Assuming you are the principal representative for your "chosen side":


• What would
  you
  have done in this case to solve the issue?


• What decisions would
  you
  have taken?
