Smoothing/Accommodating is the way to go. It's like the Switzerland of conflict resolution techniques - always staying neutral.

I think forcing can sometimes make things worse, it's better to find a compromise.

Haha, I bet the exam writer is hoping we don't choose 'Withdrawing/Avoiding' - that's just running away from the problem, not resolving it!

I agree, D is the correct answer. Collaborating is more about finding a mutually beneficial solution, while smoothing is just about avoiding conflict.
