Creating a Positive Work Environment: Session Five – Managing Conflict: Self Assessment

Questionnaire

Yes

No

Instead of getting into an argument, I put off certain discussions.

When someone doesn’t deliver on a promise, I judge them more quickly than I should.

Sometimes I bring up difficult subjects in a way that makes people defensive.

Let’s be honest: there are people I deal with who simply cannot be motivated.

When someone is struggling, I tend to offer advice, even though they may just want to have someone listen to their ideas.

When discussing problems, I sometimes get side-tracked and miss the actual problem.

There are some people I simply cannot work with.

Sometimes it’s not them being difficult, it’s me.

I prefer to just jump in and have the conversation, rather than spending a lot of time planning for it.

I know that I have to have these conversations, but I do not have to like them.
