Group 1: Working Through Conflict 1 Test At A Time
Description
The Host invites five of her dear friends to a dinner party following the pandemic lockdowns. During the meal, one of the guests begins to cough and sneeze while eating the host's main dish. Despite the host's insistence on testing, the coughing guest rejects the suggestion, leading to a conflict among the dinner guests regarding vaccination beliefs. Tensions escalate, resulting in the host asking the guests to leave.
However, one of the guests takes on the role of mediator and successfully transforms the conflict by suggesting the practice of active listening, collaboration, and empowerment during communication. This effective conflict resolution leads to the dinner party concluding on a positive note of connectedness, support, and mutual respect.
