Why each option
Compromise is a conflict resolution technique where each party makes concessions, leading to a scenario where neither party fully achieves their original objectives.
Forcing (or competing) is a win-lose scenario where one party asserts their position over the others.
Confronting (or problem-solving) is generally a win-win scenario focused on finding a solution that satisfies all parties.
Compromise involves each party making concessions to find a middle ground, meaning no one fully gets what they want, leading to a lose-lose outcome where both parties achieve only partial satisfaction.
Negotiating aims for a mutually beneficial resolution and can result in various outcomes, but typically not an inherent lose-lose unless the negotiation fails.
