TKI turns 40
The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument turns 40 in 2014
The TKI tackles workplace conflict by identifying and managing different conflict styles. Rather than helping people avoid the issue, it helps to reframe conflict and harness its potential as a catalyst for development.
Creators Thomas and Kilmann both remain popular speakers on the subject of conflict resolution, and their ideas and products are very much in demand.
The TKI’s application has been supported by research by others into topics ranging from leadership to emotional intelligence. Ralph Kilmann is also a guest blogger on our blog, PersonalityMatters.
TKI publisher CPP has produced timeline and conflict infographics to celebrate 40 years of the tool that continues to resolve the stickiest workplace head-to-heads.
