CAS 305 - Communicating and Working Through Conflict: Strategies for Relationships, Groups, and Organizations

3 hours
This course explores the research premise that conflict is communication. The creation of conflict is a series of interdependent communication actions. The architecture of conflict, the use and balance of power in conflict, forms of face-saving and face-giving in conflict will help set the framework for the class. Patterns of behavior and their influence on relationships and the use of third-party interventions will also be covered. Styles, strategies, and conflict dynamics will be explored using a case study and discussion format. CC
