The Graceful Path to Having Hard Conversations
Manage episode 423631835 series 3577191
Recently, I found myself hesitating to have a tough conversation with someone on my team. Things were not getting done as planned, and I began to make assumptions about what the issue might be. I really like this person and didn't want to pressure her, knowing she was very busy.
But I knew I couldn't let it go on. As we talked, I realized my assumptions were completely wrong and that she was dealing with something entirely different. By talking it through, we were able to clear the air and find a productive way to move forward.
Do you ever struggle to have those tough conversations, fearing defensiveness or anger? If you're interested in learning more about what I learned and how you can approach these conversations with more ease, give a listen now!
