The ZOUD and Five Steps to Tackling Difficult Conversations With Grace
No one likes to have a difficult conversation. Most people avoid it as long as possible, which tends to exasperate the issue.
Let’s Ignite.
Is This a “WE” Conversation?
You’re committed to being a great team player, an amazingly inclusive boss, or a top-notch collaborator. By nature (or training) you use inclusive language like “we” when giving directives. Sounds great, right? It might be.
“No” (with Options)
For some of us, saying no is challenging. Either we don’t want to disappoint others, or we want to be helpful, useful, supportive, and so on.
I’m Curious. Are You?
I believe curiosity is THE most important competency for all employees, from frontline workers to c-suite executives. In “leadership umami,” curiosity is the magic ingredient that help you succeed in business and life.
When Are You Most Productive?
When it comes to productive time, we’re all different. I’m up with the birds at 5:00 a.m., fully charged and ready to tackle the world.
