The fight response is not limited to anger or aggression. In workplace conflict, it can appear as arguing harder, interrupting, controlling, defending, or pushing for immediate resolution. Learn what drives it and how Conflict EQ helps people respond more deliberately.

Explore the five common conflict styles—competing, collaborating, compromising, avoiding, and accommodating—and learn why effective conflict requires flexibility rather than one ideal style.

Explore why do people react differently during conflict, the factors that drive this pattern, and what research and Conflict EQ® suggest about responding more constructively.
