People don’t always escalate because they want conflict. Sometimes, they escalate because they feel dismissed.
That’s why communication is a core pillar of the C.A.L.M. (Conflict Avoidance & Listening Method) framework and a skill we teach and train at L.E.A.D.
Learning how to listen, acknowledge, and communicate under pressure can change the direction of a difficult interaction. Good communication can stop escalation before it starts.
