MARY PARKER FOLLETT, a first reading
Follett approached conflict, cooperation, and power through relationships within organizations.
Integration: what does it mean?
Integration goes beyond victory for one side or a compromise of partial concessions. It seeks a new solution through understanding both sides' underlying needs, using differences to create shared possibilities.
