Win-Win-Win

A solution to a conflict which not only benefits both parties involved, but also benefits the mediator for having successfully mediated a conflict. Deemed the most optimal result of a conflict and coined by Michael Scott in the Conflict Resolution episode (twenty-one of season two) of The Office.

Making the poster into a T-shirt and forcing Oscar to wear it was quite a win-win-win solution.

For The Win+Win+Win

Rare situation where a seemingly no-win scenario is reframed, redefined and represented, usually through the adjustment of multiple rules sets, until a greater than believed solution appears whereby all parties experience a more than satisfactory outcome provided they can recognize it.

Person 1: I love two people lol my friend who’s always there for me and supports my dreams and the friend I’ve been with, lived with and paid the rent for. What do I do?
Person 2: Whoa - Two options the best and the scrub. Gnarly.
Person 1: yeah either way I’m toast.
Person 2:No way! Right now you’re toast. you carry the scrub. Scrub for the Win, and you Lose-Lose. No bueno. Trust me. Marry the best person you ever met and fuck the scrub For The Win+Win+Win. You know we wouldn’t be here if he didn’t want it, and he wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t right.
