Conflict Resolution
Finding a way through the drama without making it worse.
Why It Matters
Disagreements happen. It’s how you handle them that shows real strength.
Conflict resolution is about staying calm, listening well, and working things out without blowing up.
How You Know You’ve Got It
You stay cool when people disagree
You listen, even if you don’t agree
You try to fix the problem—not just win the argument
How To Level Up
Say: “Help me understand your side” before jumping in
Pause when you're heated—breathe before you speak
Look for common ground, not just who's right
