What are the methods of managing a conflict?

Conflict can be managed through various methods, including active listening, where parties acknowledge each other's perspectives, fostering understanding. Mediation involves a neutral third party to facilitate discussion and help reach a resolution. Collaboration encourages all parties to work together to find a mutually beneficial solution, while compromise requires each side to make concessions. Lastly, avoidance may be used in situations where conflict resolution is not feasible or necessary.
