  8. Individualist vs. Collectivismin Conflict • Individualists are outcome oriented in conflict. • Individualists become frustrated when feelings aren’t asserted honestly. • Conflict is perceived as productive when tangible resolutions are reached. • Collectivists are process oriented in conflict. • Conflict is perceived as threatening when substantive issues are addressed before facework management. • Conflict is perceived as unproductive when face issues and group feelings are not addressed properly.

  9. Context and Conflict • Low-context cultures are more direct and explicit in conflict. • Separate conflict from the individual. • Prefer a solution-oriented stye. • High-context cultures are more indirect and implicit in conflict. • Connect conflict with the individual. • Prefer a non-confrontational style.
