Many conversations over time, with no thought of them ever being “completed” contribute to connection. The repeated touch points keep us linked. When we are connected, we create and cultivate a foundation. We create a common ground of shared experience. None of this is to say that we will experience a mind meld. We may hold different views that are difficult to reconcile. Disagreements are a part of life. But when I know more about you, even little things, I know you better. I know where your sore spots are. I will be better equipped to keep the friction down if I know you. I can learn to say things in a way less likely to set you off. And, of course, all of this applies in the reverse. If you know me better through those continuing exchanges, even if brief, you will be able to avoid unnecessary friction.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

We may be well aware that an unpleasant conflict is brewing – perhaps simmering but not yet exploding. We can dread an explosion. Or an explosion may have occurred. We can dread what comes next. Dread won't help us. Anticipation will.Anticipating by being as ready as we can be. Then, knowing that, facing whatever comes with as much calm and confidence as we can muster.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Last time, I talked about how each of us can find different methods for calming our own emotions. I have talked before about thinking through how to support the other person engaged with you in a challenging conversation to be their best self. Just like you, -- it's true for all of us – they will be better able to analyze the situation and to make better decisions when they are calm.So, what do you do about it? What you don't do is tell them to be calm. More likely to irritate than soothe. What do you do?First, be sensitive to the idea that they may have their own practices for calming themselves.Next, be open to accommodating their calming practices as much as you are able. Not only can that willingness help them in that moment to better engage with you, that gesture can help the relationship itself. And the stronger the relationship, the more commitment people can have to handling inevitable disagreements that will pop up in the future.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

I thank Cinnie Noble, who created the CINERGY conflict management model in which I am certified, for sparking this idea. In her most recent talk with certified coaches, Cinnie reminded us about the importance of allowing – and helping – brains to calm down.When emotions are carrying the day, our ability to analyze a situation effectively and to make good decisions is compromised. We are simply not at our best. Conflict often feels like chaos to us. And chaos allows emotions to come to the fore. Calming your emotions when dealing with conflict is more than just a nice idea. It's an essential piece of handling conflict effectively.Next time, a few thoughts about that other person's attempts to find calm in chaos.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

In my latest three solo episodes, I've talked about watching our spoken language, our facial and body language, and our written language. Often, we will have a choice about what mode of communication to pursue. It's worth some careful thought. If we take advantage of the opportunity to carefully craft and review what we write, that's a plus. Sometimes, our tone of voice and our facial and body expressions can soften a blow, express kindness in a way that is harder to do with written language alone. If we know the person receiving the message we are sending, we may know what mode of communication works best for them.You may be familiar with what some call the three-email rule. If the topic can't be resolved and the conversation completed in three messages, it's time to move on to another mode of communication: phone, video, or in-person. Spinning your wheels in frustration is an invitation to conflict that you should decline.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

We can carefully draft a message, set it aside, and then calmly review it to determine whether we like how it reads to someone receiving it. Because that is the point, isn't it? Our own satisfaction with our wordsmithing is far less important than the message received. Written language has a different risk from spoken language: our words can be shared, verbatim, immediately or eventually. Photocopies, scans, forwarded emails, copied texts. A reply to you, including your original message, with a blind cc. Our words can travel far and wide. We need to choose them with care.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Last time, I talked about spoken language. This time it's body language and facial language. You have likely heard that a very large percentage of our communication is not spoken. Some slips are things you know you shouldn't do. Let's focus on what to do about that. Do you know that you are doing it? Try this. When you are talking on the phone with someone who can try your patience, watch yourself in a mirror. Not while driving, please. But look and notice your face, your shoulders, and more. Are there facial or body actions that you are not really aware of? As with most things, awareness is the first step. If you now know you are doing it, you can work on reining that in.Next, you may be doing something, and you are aware that it might be misinterpreted.If others easily assume that I am miserable about something, they may be guessing wrong about what it is. So what should I do? Name it. Direct and accurate communication to counteract what is indirect and inaccurate.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Without much thought, we can use words and phrases that subtly or strongly convey meaning – and do unnecessary harm. A” blended family” is more positive than a “stepfamily”. “Always” and “never” are words that frequently cause harm (and are often inaccurate). “I” statements can lead to more positive conversations than accusatory ones. Vague words like “you” and “soon” invite trouble. These examples aren't meant to be exhaustive, but to illustrate how we can pay more attention to the words that we use and perhaps avoid some unnecessary bad conflict.

A false start in a conflict situation can appear in different ways. We can create a conflict where none existed or when we make a good faith attempt to resolve a conflict. Of course, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. A concept so fundamental that it was the focus of Episode 11, way back on March 13, 2019. But if a false start has occurred, remember and take advantage of the fact of the false start – emphasis on “start”. So, let's start over. If you made an honest mistake, try an old-fashioned apology. Explain, if you can, what went wrong. If the other person refuses to engage with you and says so, consider offering a cooling-off period of some specific duration. An agreement to try again at a certain time or date. Take a break, a breather, a pause. If it's just crickets, no response at all, think about a good length for a breather – from your perspective and the other person's, too – and pick it. Take the initiative to try again at the end of that pause. It's just the start. Too soon to give up. Worth it to try again and do what you can to set up for a better result.

There is widespread agreement that the phrase comes from a military engagement, though which one is the original is less clear. Fundamentally, what is the cost to take that hill, to hold the high ground. Then weighing it against the advantage. In interpersonal conflict, we can benefit by going through that analysis explicitly and thoughtfully.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

The general idea of Community Mediation is that trained volunteers work on neighbor disputes. The volunteer mediators are impartial. This approach can keep disputes out of court. And that's the most common understanding of it. But community mediation can be much more. First, the individuals in a specific mediated dispute can experience a way to address disagreements and conflict beyond just hating a neighbor or getting the police involved, in one way or another. Many settings beyond neighborhoods can benefit. Not just individuals but groups and organizations can engage in mediation. And services beyond mediation can have great value. The hard part is the funding, at least in part because it can be difficult to put a monetary value on problems solved, relationships improved, and government expenses avoided. You can learn more about Community Mediation through the website of the U.S. based National Association for Community Mediation (NAFCM) https://www.nafcm.org/.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)Today, our Canadian Director Dori Braddell joins Tracy for a fascinating and timely discussion of the recent changes to the family justice system in Canada, including mandatory ADR, and what it means for dispute resolution and divorce coaching.Dori shares that in 2024, some provinces have made it mandatory for divorcing couples to make an ADR attempt first before they can have their matter heard in court. Couples can no longer go directly to a judge to decide their family matters. And in provinces where it's not mandatory (yet), she is seeing judges order couples into an ADR process or require it if either party requests it. This means that divorcing Canadians are more likely to participate in ADR, whether by choice or not, than ever before. And demand for professionals to support them will continue to grow. We know that one on one, individualized dispute resolution support from a Certified Divorce Coach can be the difference between a blown ADR attempt and a settlement agreement. Divorce Coaches are that secret weapon, the special sauce that exponentially improves the odds at succeeding in something you didn't have choice but to do. The next cohort of DCA divorce coach training for Canada begins the week of March 9 and Dori would love to chat with you about the opportunities that this new legislation opens up for properly trained divorce coaches.

Chrissy Fleming: The Impact of Unaddressed Conflict on Agile Team Health Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Chrissy shares a compelling story about a newly formed team working on retention that struggled with toxic behavior. The presence of a hostile team member created an environment where healthy conflict became impossible, leading to either unhealthy confrontations or complete avoidance. Despite attempts to address the situation, the lack of trust prevented team members from addressing the destructive behavior, ultimately resulting in the team's dissolution. Self-reflection Question: How do you currently handle toxic behavior in your team, and what steps could you take to build the psychological safety needed for addressing conflicts openly? Featured Book of the Week: How Toddlers Thrive by Tove Klein How Toddlers Thrive by Tove Klein explores brain function and human behavior, drawing surprising parallels between toddler development and adult interactions. Chrissy recommends it for its valuable insights into emotional intelligence and human nature, reminding us that in Agile environments, we're fundamentally dealing with human beings and their emotions.

This week, President Trump signed executive orders that profoundly affect teaching and learning. The most immediate involves mass deportation and authorizing immigration agents to make arrests at schools. To understand how the education community is navigating these developments, we contacted teachers, principals, superintendents, education reporters, and immigration lawyers. We encountered intense emotions and confusion; many were unwilling or unprepared to speak publicly. We eventually found a group that was willing to share their thoughts, feelings, plans, and resources they're using. Most of all, they offered their best reasons for hope amid the uncertainty ahead.

Mediation is a flexible process. What matters is what works for the people involved and the mediator. That the people in conflict are in control of the outcome. That the mediator is impartial. That the people in conflict are treated equally. And that anything said in confidence to the mediator stays in confidence. Think about mediation creatively and expansively. It's a good fit in many circumstances of conflict. Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest? An idea or question about conflict management or conflict resolution?
