Analyzing and Resolving Conflict

 

 

 

Begin by viewing the two videos below. Note that there is no public safety officer in the video; you are to assume that role, and complete the assignment as if you were observing the interaction between the landlord and tenant. To be clear, you are like a “fly on the wall” as you view this from the perspective of a third party. You may view the video as often as you like in order to address the areas and issues listed below.
The first video takes place some time before the 2nd one—perhaps a month earlier.
