How do you handle conflict?
Do you see it as an opportunity for learning and growth, or something to avoid at all costs?
In our leadership training programs, we often explore how teams thrive when they experience intellectual friction without social friction. Conflict can be healthy—especially when teams feel safe, included, and empowered to learn, contribute, and even disagree.
To help you better understand your approach to conflict, we’ve adapted the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument—a widely used assessment tool. This quick assessment takes about three minutes and will provide insight into your conflict management style.
Once completed, your results will be displayed on-screen. If you choose to provide your email address, we’ll also send your results directly to your inbox.
Think about situations where your goals or desires clash with someone else’s. How do you typically respond?
Please enter your name below, then proceed to the assessment.
You’ll be presented with several pairs of statements describing possible behaviours. For each pair, choose the statement (A or B) that best reflects your typical response. In some cases, neither may feel exactly right—but go with the one that’s more likely to be your approach.
