Are you the top dog, or are you content to run with the pack? Are you barking up the wrong tree when it comes to leadership?  How you deal with conflict says a lot about how you approach leadership.  Based on conflict styles research, this funny, engaging, and insightful program illustrates a variety of leadership styles, from the assertive and powerful Bulldog, to the happy-go-lucky Black Lab, and everything in between. Discover your “inner dog” and find out how to apply that knowledge in honing your leadership skills.  Learn some new tricks on how to recognize other breeds of leaders, and how to adapt your leadership style so you can ultimately become “Best in Show.”  

Program Outline—
This program uses a combination of PowerPoint, group discussion, and group activities to combine leadership styles with conflict styles.  To make the content easier to remember and more accessible to the audience, the styles are attached to five different dog breeds with characteristics similar to each of the five most common conflict styles. 

The program begins with a challenge to change the perception of conflict from negative and something to be avoided to a positive experience that contributes to growth and change.  To achieve this, the group brainstorms words and feelings associated with conflict, with the intention of uncovering the positive words during the brainstorm process.

We then examine the five different conflict styles—accommodation, avoidance, compromise, competition, and collaboration—linking each one to a specific dog breed.  Each style has distinct characteristics and approaches to conflict, just as each dog breed has distinct characteristics that make it unique in the dog world.  As each style is discussed, the breed characteristics that match the conflict style are analyzed as well, helping participants to remember more clearly the attributes of each style. The easy-to-learn and remember format of the program makes it easy for participants to begin using immediately, and also to take back to their own campuses.

Following this overview, there is discussion and working in groups to determine strategies unique to each of the styles, and situations appropriate to each style.  Groups then come together to report on their findings; as each group reports, the facilitator adds clarifications and distinctions as needed.  Finally, participants are given strategies to use when dealing with people who approach conflict in styles different from their own.

Participants will:

·          Develop clearer personal understanding of how they approach conflict;

·         Utilize conflict styles awareness in dealing with interpersonal conflict on a professional and personal level;

·         Practice easy-to-teach and easy-to-use communication skills for dealing with conflict;

·         Develop a personal action plan on where, when and how they will utilize newly acquired skills in their personal and professional lives.
