MGT 300 ESSIENTIAL OF MANAGING CONFLICT (STUDY GUIDE) – Ashford University DESCRIBING CONFLICT That night, at the neighborhood improvement group meeting, the disagreement between Tony and Diana heated up as they both stood their ground on the issue of the playground/parking lot. Tony argued that the parking lot was essential for the community and made it easier for the senior citizens to park close to their homes. Diana argued that her children needed a place to play and that the park had to stay. Tony accused Diana of not caring about senior citizens' concerns. "You don't care about the neighborhood's children, now that yours have all grown up!" Diana retorted. Select the statement that describes why this is an interest-based conflict. OOPS Your answer is incorrect. • There are various city policies and ordinances that Tony and Diana must sort through. • Diana is more assertive than Tony when it comes to fighting for her belief. • Tony and his community need convenient parking, whereas Diana has children who need a place to play. • Tony doesn't have a relationship with any of the neighborhood children, so he doesn't value the park. After the meeting, Diana and Tony talked to their families about the city's proposal to demolish the playground and build a parking lot. Diana and her husband, Rick, agreed that the neighborhood should keep the playground, while Tony and his wife, Ella, agreed that parking was an urgent problem. Given the opposing perspectives in the community, the conflict may continue to develop and become increasingly intense. Select the statement that describes the incident stage of conflict.
