Abstract: Abstract This chapter uses the Kilmann-Thomas Conflict Framework to better understand and thereby hopefully resolve the immense conflicts that are at the heart of all of the thorny issues with which we are struggling to deal. The key element is Compromise. While all the parties to a conflict may not get all that they want, Compromise is absolutely essential to preserving whatever group harmony and cohesion is possible. At the very least, it allows all of the parties to get something rather than nothing at all. In sum, when one and only one party wins, no one really does.
