· When and where did it take place? Was it formal or informal? Planned or unplanned? What impact did the location and time have on the outcome?

· What transpired? (Be specific.)

· What was the surface problem?

Problems

· What was the underlying problem, or the real problem? If this is unclear, what might you speculate the real problem to be?

Strategies

· Which conflict management strategies were employed by each of the participants? Did the conflict management strategies change during the course of the conversation? How do you know?

· What was the outcome? Was there a winner? A loser? Did there appear to be an impact on the relationship? If so, what was that impact?
