Choose the correct option to describe steps for integration as suggested by Mary Parker Follet :

  • A.To bring the differences in the open → Anticipation of Conflict → Breaking up the whole into their constituent parts
  • B.To bring the differences in the open → Breaking up the whole into their constituent parts → Anticipation of conflict
  • C.Breaking up the whole into their constitutional parts → To bring the differences in the open → Anticipation of conflict
  • D.Anticipation of conflict → To bring the difference into open → Breaking up the whole into their constituent parts

Answer: B

Follett's order is bring the differences into the open, break up the whole into its constituent parts, then anticipate conflict.

In her paper 'Constructive Conflict' Mary Parker Follett said the first rule for obtaining integration is to bring the differences into the open, since conflict cannot be integrated while it is hidden. The next step is to take the demands of both sides and break them up into their constituent parts, which shows where interests can be fitted together. She also stressed anticipating conflict, not to avoid it but to respond to it before it hardens.

The other options start with anticipation or with breaking up the whole, or put anticipation second, which reverses her sequence.
