Interpersonal Communication

Approaches to Handling Conflict (CH 9) and Cultural Influences on Communication (CH 5)

Paragraph 1-5: Describe & cite each of the Approaches to Handling Conflict (also known as Strategies of Conflict Management). Please use the textbook definitions, not the PowerPoint.

For each paragraph outlining a Strategy of Conflict Management, describe why any of the Cultural Orientations from CH 5 would value that method, using a definition and citation for that orientation to help clarify the connection. Note that you do not need to use both sides of the cultural spectrum!
