Imagine that you are a leadership consultant.

1. Using your example of conflict in your professional practice (from Week 4 Discussion 1: Conflict in the Workplace), build on the readings, videos, and peer input you received.
2. Critically analyze the situation and create a plan that would have helped to resolve the conflict and promote collaboration among the group.

   • Comprehension: Review the details of the conflict scenario, identifying the type and effects of the conflict.
   • Application: Relate course content on delegation, empowerment, group dynamics, and constructive group roles and behaviors to the identified conflict scenario.
