When “CALM DOWN!” Doesn’t Cut It: How to De-escalate Conflict and Keep Your Cool

Katie Rigsby Donje Putnam I totally get it. I can imagine that you were frightened and it is really difficult "in the heat of the moment" to keep our cool. This is something that takes practice but recognizing what we could have done differently in a situation is the first step to de-escalating future issues. Fight or flight is totally natural so we have to provide ourselves with the skills to diffuse the situation. How do you think you could have handled that situation differently?

Katie Rigsby Lilah Poltz you are so right! So the next time a resident calls at 4pm on a Friday and says their refrigerator hasn't been cooling for 3 days and wants someone out pronto, instead of saying "You should have called us when you first notice the issue...." what's a better alternative?

Which area do you struggle with the most when it comes to increasing your resident's perception of value?

What are you planning to do to show your team some love on Valentine's Day?
Put your ideas in the comments, I'll go first...

Becky Dotson Cooking breakfast! They are enticed with food and not with sweets. I will also do a lunch with some homemade Brats my hubby made out of venison. They are very very venison motivated too. They love the 'homemade' aspect of food - I guess I am a good cook.
