TKI™ Conflict Mode Instrument
TKI® Conflict Mode Instrument
Gain Insight. Create Action. Grow with Confidence.
A research-based conflict management assessment and coaching package designed to help you understand your preferred conflict style and develop more effective approaches to managing difficult conversations and disagreements.
About the Assessment
Developed by Dr. Kenneth W. Thomas and Dr. Ralph H. Kilmann, the TKI® Conflict Mode Instrument is one of the world's most widely used conflict management assessments.
The assessment identifies your preferred approaches to conflict across five conflict-handling modes: Competing, Collaborating, Compromising, Avoiding, and Accommodating.
By increasing awareness of your default conflict style, the TKI helps you develop greater flexibility and learn when different approaches may be more effective in different situations.
