  • how the individual responds before, during and after conflict
  • which responses to conflict have the potential to harm one's position in a particular organization

Active-Destructive Response Profile
Four ways of responding to conflict which through some effort on the part of the individual have the effect of escalating the conflict: Winning at All Costs, Displaying Anger, Demeaning Others, and Retaliating.

Passive-Destructive Response Profile
