Identify the most appropriate conflict management style-avoiding, accommodating, competing, compromising, or collaborating-to use in each situation. Explain your answer.

-You've joined a committee to make contacts. You have little interest in what the committee actually does. You make a recommendation that is opposed by another member. You realize that you have the better idea, but the other party is using a competing style.

-You're a sales manager, and your most competent salesperson, Beth, is trying to close a big sale. The two of you are discussing the sales call she will make. You disagree on the most effective strategy to close the sale.

-You're over budget for labor this month. The current workload is light, so you ask Kent, a part-time employee, to leave work early. Kent tells you that he doesn't want to go because he needs the money.
