64 How is self awareness a conflict competency?

Dr. Deborah Sword, with co-host Tyson Bankert Season 2 Episode 64

"Know thyself!" comes to us as philosophical wisdom from antiquity. Self awareness is a conflict competency that increases your adaptability. The self you know is a learning, growing being who strives for quality relationships. Self awareness can prevent conflict, make you more adaptable to manage different kinds of conflict with different strategies, and improve the quality of the relationship you have with yourself. The more we are able to adapt, the more opportunities we have to be conflict competent.
Here are three ways that you achieving self awareness improves your conflict competence.
