Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Compromising involves both parties giving up something to reach a solution that is mutually acceptable but not necessarily the best possible outcome. This means that both parties are likely to have some degree of dissatisfaction with the compromise, which contradicts option C. Instead, compromising is appropriate when both parties have moderately important goals and can make concessions to reach an agreement. Option A is a correct description of Frances's approach. Option B is also correct - compromising may be the best solution when there is no clear win-win solution and both parties have strong views. Option D is plausible, but not necessarily true, as there may be other conflict-handling approaches that could work in a situation where both parties have equal power.
