A New View of ConflictFrom perceiving conflict as always being…
A disruption of order, a negative experience, an error or mistake in a relationship.
To perceiving conflict as often being…
An outgrowth of diversity that might hold possibilities for mutual growth and for improving the relationship.

“Whenever you're in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can
make the difference between damaging your relationship and
deepening it. That factor is attitude.”–William James
49
Attitude• Attitude precedes aptitude• Competition versus Collaboration• “Me” versus “We”• “Me” leads to withdrawal and/or violence
• “We” leads to shared meaning
Aptitude• Conflict content & trigger• Lived experience • “Stories”
• Preferred conflict resolution styles • Right style • Right time
Conflict Content & Trigger• Perceived incompatibility• Lived experiences• “Stories”
Make it Safe
Addressing Perceived Incompatibility
Establish Mutual Purpose: Must Have Common Objectives
• Dialogue begins with mutual purpose• Mutual purpose is foundation of trust• Trust facilitates openness
Without mutual purpose people withhold meaning.53
Lived ExperiencesPositive and negative experiences people bring to the interaction
• Emotional triggers• Diversity in interpretation• What is heard is often NOT what is said.
Seek to understand other’s lived experiences.

Application to Clinical and Personal Scenarios
67
Case ApplicationBreak Out Groups
Creating Reliability in Collaboration
Avoid hierarchical beliefs
The person with the least rank has the most impact if the information is critical.
A policy of saying the words "safety check" as a signal…to stop talking and listen.
Shared Perspectives
“Physical therapist and the patient both engage in a shared decision making process. And this is founded on a movement between, and a learning of, each other’s perspectives. There is no doubt that this is a very skilled activity and the physical therapist has a responsibility to create the environment for this mutual learning to occur.”
Creating a safe environment
Respecting the lived experience
Shared Decision Making
• “…in the processes of shared decision making and wide reflective equilibrium, the perspectives of protagonists on both sides of the dilemma are made more permeable with a capacity for change.
“…a deeper understanding of the communicative complexity and the demanding negotiations of the collaboration between physiotherapists and patients…The patients’ and the physiotherapists’ capacity to bear and come through appropriated demanding situations created new ways of interaction.”

Conflict in Patient Care
“…demanding situations may generate a potential of development and improvement of treatment outcomes. Understanding such episodes as open and dynamic, in contrast to defining the patient as demanding, suggests a useful perspective for treatment.”
