Question

Rita and Rohan both work for a software development company. Rita, a project team
member, along with her boss had interviewed Rohan, but strongly opposed hiring
him for the project because she thought he was not competent to do the job. Seven
months after Rohan was hired, the manager left and recommended that Rohan and
Rita serve as joint project leaders. Rita agreed reluctantly. Within a month Rita was
angry because Rohan was representing himself to others as the leader of the entire
project and giving the impression that Rita was working for him. Rita said: "Rohan
called a meeting of the project team without even consulting me about the time or
content. At the meeting, Rohan reviewed everyone's duties line by line, including
mine, treating me as just another team member working for him. Rohan retorted
"Rita is all hung up with feelings of power and titles. She is too sensitive about
everything. I call a meeting and right away she thinks I'm trying to run everything.
Rita has other things to do, other projects to run, so she doesn't pay too much
attention to this one. She mostly let things slide. But when I take the initiative to set
up a meeting, she starts jumping up and down about how I am trying to make her
work for me."
Rohan and Rita seem to have several conflicts occurring simultaneously. Keeping
the conflict process model in mind,
