Deconstructing Conflict looks at family business conflict, or conflict over shared wealth, as one example of a broader category of conflict: identity-based, systemic conflict among stakeholders who share important continuing relationships. This new work draws upon nearly fifteen years of experience in which Baumoel and Trippe have helped scores of enterprising families navigate the challenges of owning and managing together as family. Based upon their groundbreaking methodology known as “The Conflict Equation,�� the book presents five foundational concepts to help readers deconstruct conflict into its component parts. It will help you understand the reasons that underline all conflict, what triggers active conflict, and why conflict can be so extreme and intractable in family business systems.
This book will arm family business stakeholders and their advisors with the most cutting-edge thinking for achieving generational success in family enterprise.Other authorsSee publication -

This article discusses an extension to the Thomas-Kilmann conflict mode instrument that is designed specifically for conflict situations in which strong negative emotional relationships are at play. While the TK-Model explores conflict behavior when relationships are indifferent to important, the Baumoel-Trippe Extension to the TK-Model (or BT-TK Model) explores conflict behavior when relationships are extremely adversarial through harmonious. The BT-TK Model is extremely useful for helping stakeholders gain perspective on their behavior when in extreme conflict. This is especially useful when conflict is identity-based and when continuing relationships matter, such as in family enterprise.
