 THEORETICAL BASIS

There are only two things in this world: reality, and words about reality. Conflict comes when one story about reality seems to invalidate other stories. Then the sides justify their stories instead of achieving collective and mutually empowering results by creating a third story. 

Temporary solutions come from momentary willingness to reinterpret reality. Long term solutions require process, structure, and sometimes people change. There is no permanent solution to conflict that we can impose, which is a good thing since conflict helps us grow.

Reframed Reality's conflict resolutions relies on reframing narratives and forging clear agreement and accountability. In the process, individuals grow stronger; teams grow in trust and respect; and organizations become more flexible, productive, and better places to work.
