Hi ...
In the past I have used a series of statements in which you need to either agree or disagree with the statement. I have individuals fill the papers our individually and then either pair them up or group them up depending on the goals of the program and they have to reach consensus for each item. It never works and always causes disagreements and discussions. It is very effective to help participants see and experience what you are talking about and what it takes to truly resolve or negotiate.
Statements can be anything such as:
I think most people find an argument interesting and exciting.
The best way to handle a conflict is to let everyone cool off.
Conflicts can be solved if people will just take the time to listen to one another.
Hope this helps.
