Now it is your turn to manage a difficult conversation. For this assignment, you will write a scenario that describes two people ending up in a physical conflict. After setting up the physical conflict, you will use the 4D’s of Difficult Conversations to help the people in your scenario resolve their differences. Write a scenario involving a physical conflict between two people. You can create a realistic scenario using students or you can draw inspiration from fiction—try writing a conflict between characters from your favorite book, TV show, or movie. For example, you could write about a brawl between Edward and Jacob from the Twilight saga or a lightsaber duel between Star Wars enemies. Your scenario should describe the characters, the reason for their disagreement, and some sort of physical conflict fitting with your characters’ story.
Following the example of Sandra’s discussion with Jack and Nolan, use the 4D’s of Difficult Conversations to guide the characters from your scenario to a resolution. Write a script that features your questions as well as your characters’ responses.
