RHET 149 - Conflict Resolution and Management

Semester Hours: 3
Conflict in most contexts is transacted in communication. It is a product of verbal and nonverbal communication between parties, and is subject to many of the dynamics of interpersonal, small group, organizational, and public contexts. The quality of personal and professional interactions is contingent upon the perception, value and execution of disagreements. The course will introduce students to various theories of conflict communication, while also considering the role of cultural predispositions to the avoidance, performance, and evaluation of conflicts across contexts.
