Publisher:  University of Wisconsin-Extension, Cooperative Extension, in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Wisconsin counties Introduction
In today’s communities, people frequently have different ideas regarding how to solve various issues. These differences can make for creative solutions or can spiral into conflict with others. Developing comfort with conflict and skill in managing it is a key competency for University of Wisconsin-Extension educators who have received training from the UW-Extension Conflict Education Team. The team developed modules to make subject matter content accessible for UW-Extension educators in their communities. The modules are designed to stand alone, or they can be combined for a more substantive program. The following list provides an effective sequence to teach the modules. Communication plays a key role in life, and the same can be said for conflict situations. But how much of communication is actually said, and how much of it is unspoken? It’s been said that 90% of communication is non-verbal. Therefore, non-verbal communication can play a major role in a conflict.
It’s important to consider non-verbal communication when dealing with a conflict situation because it is true that what you don’t say can speak louder than what you are trying to say out loud.
We will explore the basics of non-verbal communication and raise awareness of what mixed messages your non-verbal signals might be sending and how that can contribute to a conflict situation
