On the other hand, integration style is the win –win style of managing conflict. The style involves the use of creative,

Problem- solving approach to conflict management.compromise indicates creating a situation for the parties in conflict to partake in share of some win and losing.

In modern times there is two dimensional approach to management of organizational conflict. In essence, therefore ,the approach is viewed

In terms of two dimensions; one represents a persons degree of concerns for his or her own interest or goals. The other represents the persons degree of concern for the other persons interest or goals. This is a simplistic view of the modern approach to the management of organizational conflict.there are five basic  conflict- management styles consisting of competition, avoidance,accommodation,compromise,and collaboration ORGANISATIONAL CONFLICT
