What are your thoughts on whether we should emphasize resolution of conflict as part of a young person's education?
Those with children....have you taught this to your children?
Are schools doing this?
How?
I spent a few years in corporate sales and was very fortunate the company that I worked for worked hard at developing "people skills" in it's sales force. How to remove the ego, stay humble, and work towards collaboration - not competition.
Thoughts?

I am a labor relations guy in the construction industry. I have some thoughts. Unfortunately after reading the first four posts, late on a Friday night, this is all I got.
Yes, conflict resolution is important. And, these days, apparently rare.

Then you might be good at it. Part is skill, and part is talent.

Untrue. In fact, there is always resolution. Eventually. Either through negotiations between the parties (where both get what they need) or, after both sides are damaged by prolonged conflict, détente. Which is resolution.
