According to your understanding, what is conflict and what is its outcome?

	Conflict

In my opinion conflict is something people encounter it minimum one time in their lives. Everyone comes to that situation where conflict is inevitable at some point. I think conflict refers to a state in which two or more people are disagree with each other, have different goals, or do not comprehend one another, which causes friction. This is quite common in families, among friends, or at workplaces. Sometimes small issue escalates to a bigger issue because there might be some misunderstanding or a failure in talking it over. This creates negative social consequences among them, like social isolation, stress and at times even mistrust. Conflict can occur over new concepts or a solution to help in the handling of the relationship. This, however, rarely occurs.

Can we end the conflict completely or not? Please explain a little.

End the Conflict

it is my belief that conflict cannot be fully prevented. This because people hold thoughts, feelings, values in different manners. Thus, certain areas may remain grey and some of the conflicts defined in this manner shall never be eliminated. But we can control or minimize conflict. If we are understanding and we explain ourselves well, most of the times, it is not a problem to solve the conflict. But if there is something heavy, then we might need a third party to come and sort the problem out amicably. But this takes time and patience.

What can be done to prevent conflict between a team or two individuals?

Tips to Prevent Conflict

In my view, communication is the key to avoiding a conflict. We fail to understand one another most of the time. Thus, we the need to speak in a language/mode that will cause the other person to feel comfortable.

The other is listening and understanding. Feels other person’s emotions helps in relationships improve. We could avoid many of the conflict we create by seeing things from other's perspective

Compromise belong to the conflict resolution approach. When two people are unhappy over a certain issue, and both parties attempt to use the other’s mind and look for a balance, a conflict situation diminishes. I also found compromise to be useful in a society such as ours which thrives on relationship in Bangladesh. At other times consultations with elderly also assist in finding solutions to a problem.

Sometimes when issues become complicated one can just seek help from a third party and get a peaceful resolution. In this way, we can also keep our friendly relationships up and do not have a chance to quarrel.

Lastly, I think there is nothing better than being polite to avoid clash of interests. Again in any society if we are courteous to one another will ensure that conflict will be limited. With focus on what other people are saying, stay calm, most of the issues that may make two people have a disagreement are easily resolved.
