After you identify your main conflict styles, interview a person who knows you well, a friend or family member, and share your conflict style assessment. Are they surprised about the assessment based upon your interactions with them? Does the conflict style assessment help the other person understand you better in case of disagreements? You can include parts of that conversation in your reflection paper.
