What does a team do when two prominent members' personalities completely clash? How does one resolve the tension without having to resort to explusion? How does one 'fix' personalities in general? I guess I am aiming at changing people's personalities. Convincing a person to act one way or another is easy; changing their personality - their thought-process - the way they think - that is the challenge. How does one go about changing a person? The problem I see is who's to say that you have the authority to make one person behave one way as opposed to another way.
So where am I going? I'm asking for advice on how does one change. Change tensions, change hatred, change a person, change a team, change a nation, change the world - it doesn't matter, it's all the same answer. It's just not easy to describe a clear method to acheive that reform.

Last year my daughter worked at the machine shop on the robot, co-drove at all the competitions, and this year became captain.
However amidst her excellent experience there were awful fights and tension.
One family from each rival school met and resolved to keep the team going and change our team for the better.
You are only in control of yourself. You may or not make a difference in the people around you. There aren't guarantees. We couldn't know in advance that what we were doing would work. It's a process, not a destination. Life's a risk, and there aren't easy final answers.
