Question

according to rahim, the conflict style managers might not want to adopt when the issue is complex and requires a long-term solution based on a problem-solving approach is:

• avoiding.
• competing.
• accommodating.
• compromising.

Explanation:

Rahim's conflict styles: Avoiding ignores the issue, so for complex, long - term problem - solving (needing in - depth resolution), Avoiding is not suitable. Competing (assertive, win - lose), Accommodating (yielding, lose - win), and Compromising (middle - ground, partial resolution) can be used in some contexts, but Avoiding doesn't address the complex, long - term problem.

Answer:

A. Avoiding.
