Peacemaking Principles for the Office

Adopting Sande’s scripturally-based, peacemaking principles, my church community will be adopting the following steps for all inner-office conflict:

Step 1: Admit the conflict.

Step 2: Recognize your own faults first.

Step 3: Attain 1-2 sounding boards.

Step 4: Talk to the other person.

Step 5: Include supervisor if needed.

Any steps missing?  Anything you have seen or done to better this process?  Anyone you need to conduct these steps with within your family, network, or business?

(I suggested a 6th step of “kiss and make-up”…but it was denied)
