Patterns of Interpersonal Conflict

Key Objectives and Outcomes:
- To understand how conflict inevitably emerges in interpersonal relationship
- To differentiate between early “pinch” moments and escalated “crunch” events
- To gain insight on the positive potential within pinch moments

What is Included
Each training module in this course consists of an engaging video presentation that overviews a key concept or skill. Each training video has an accompanying resource page with questions for personal reflection. Students often like to download and print these to compile into a resource manual.
The course is capped off with a “Call to Action” module that challenges students to immediately apply and practice these new concepts and skills.
