The Conflict Response Roles Inventory (CR²I)™

For over a decade. the (CR²I)™ has been used and trusted by thousands of individuals, and hundreds of teams and organizations to improve working relationships, reduce stressful interactions and cut the costs of conflicts that can occur when people work together. 

The CR²I™ is a self-assessment tool designed to help you better understand your behaviours, and better understand others, whenever you’re in a conflict. 

The CR²I™ measures how you typically focus on certain values and meet particular needs when in conflict.

These dimensions can vary greatly from person to person, but general patterns emerge in each of five basic conflict response roles: Loner, Decision-Maker, Moderator, Diplomat, or Friend. 

When you take the CR²I™, your scores will identify your default (or dominant) and backup conflict response roles. You’ll receive a free booklet explaining what occurs internally when you’re in conflict, and what happens between you and other people in their roles. You’ll discover what makes them tick, and how to deal with them more effectively based on what you’ll learn.

If you are an HR manager or conflict resolution practitioner, you can also learn about our group discounts on the CR²I™ for larger departments or organizations, and our facilitated workshops.
