Answer 1

1.
The conflict style named as collaborating is most difficult to implement, as individuals come up with their own ideas, interests and benefits, and don’t want to lose ground and give space to others’ ideas. It can be observed when departmental interests supersede the organizational goals and departments don’t collaborate. Hence, the different components of the organization learning to collaborate and make them work collaboratively to grow as a system is most difficult to implement.

2.
I fee conflict as an opportunity to bring people at one platform and convince them to work towards the one goal. This one goal is to create mutual benefits and, in organizational perspective, the organization grows when conflicts as an opportunity is resolved. So, the metaphor used for conflict is a game, when two parties take their steps or strategies and end up with a results, that is best for both the parties. This best result is most beneficial to all the parties involved and the organization also benefits.
