A solid framework for understanding and addressing disagreements, but there isn't enough emphasis on the time constraints imposed by reality. I often find that you must be willing to let a disagreement stand, even though, with enough time, it could be worked out. Advice on two derivatives of this problem would be even more helpful: 1) How can you tell when you have sufficiently refined your communication with the other party? 2) How to reasonably judge the point at which the costs of continuing the discussion out-weight the benefits. This is usually situation specific, but please share if you have any rules that can be applied.
