Compromise is a style of conflict resolution where each party gives up something to reach a solution. This can result in satisficing solutions, meaning that the solution may not be optimal for either party but is a satisfactory middle ground. The other styles listed (accommodation, collaboration, competing, respect) have the potential to result in optimizing solutions where both parties benefit.
