Conflict Management Matrix Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Effectively visualize and explain conflict management styles with this clear and insightful matrix template. Built on the two critical dimensions of Assertiveness and Cooperativeness, this matrix clearly defines five essential conflict-handling approaches: Competing, Collaborating, Avoiding, Accommodating, and Compromising.
