The document discusses three approaches to conflict - passive, aggressive, and assertive. A passive person would not speak up about wanting the last slice of pizza. An aggressive person would take the pizza in an inappropriate way. An assertive person would propose splitting the large slice so that both people could have some and save room for dessert. While assertiveness is usually best, being a bit more aggressive could work if assertiveness does not.

3. THE CONFLICT...

4. Who will get the last slice of the delicious Costco pizza?? Who will get to eat the last slice of delicious Costco Pizza???

6. The PASSIVE person… -relinquishes the last slice without a word of protest even though they are starving and the other person has already eaten two slices, a hot dog, AND a churro.

8. The AGGRESSIVE person… -Takes the last slice even though they aren’t hungry and are allergic to cheese and tells the other person they shouldn’t eat it because they are fat.

10. An ASSERTIVE person… -Offers to split the pizza in half because,who the heck can eat a whole slice of costco pizza anyways, it’s HUGE! And besides,this way they’ll have room for a churro for dessert!
