We live in an age of ethical disputes, making conflict inevitable
as we meet others with contrasting ethical positions and contrary
communicative expectations. An ethical position held with
conviction frequently generates conflict when one encounters
another with a differing ethical standpoint embraced with equal
assurance.Conflict Between Persons: The Origins of Leadership
conceptualizes communication and conflict as a pragmatically
essential everyday education for future leadership. Conflict
Between Persons: The Origins of Leadership emphasizes creative and
constructive reactions to conflict responsiveness with three basic
coordinates: (1) learn before, during, and after a conflict, (2)
understand what matters to you and others, and (3) acknowledge that
conflict engagement involves alertness to, and understanding of,
what matters in the interplay of self and others and the immediate
and larger communicative environment. Leadership begins with the
study and practice of communication ethics understood as background
that carries a sense of a given good that we seek to protect and
promote. The study of communication ethics does not shelter us from
conflict; in fact, it invites conflict, providing clarity about
what is important to us and to others. Leadership frames the larger
significance of behavior by announcing what matters, turning
isolated conduct and conflict into meaningful action situated
within a story. The authors conceptualize communication and
conflict as an existential education for leadership that begins
with a willingness to enter the fray of everyday disagreement
propelled by a pragmatic objective: learning from others and
difference. Communicative leadership in an era of routine
contentiousness must engage and learn from diverse convictions and
conceptions of what matters. Conflict Between Persons: The Origins
of Leadership: Examines the complex issues of ethical diversity;
ethical positions can now generate conflict. Uses the insights of
communication/leadership expert Gail T. Fairhurst, the book frames
the reality of conflict as an ongoing pragmatic education for
leadership. Examines emotion, sentiment, conflict origins,
difference, the interplay of relationships and perceptions, self
talk and internal conflict, the power of opinion, multiplicity of
conflict styles, the danger of anachronistic responses, and
alternatives to destructive conflict. Introduces the Odyssey in the
final chapter as a case study to examine the interplay of conflict,
ethics in dispute, and leadership in action. Is student friendly!
The publication incorporates key terms, glossary, index, and
navigational aids such as boldface terms, headings, sub-heads, and
