Listen "Difficult Conversations & Adapting Your Style"
Episode Synopsis
Difficult conversations are only one type of business related discussion which means that it is important to be able to adapt. A fixed mind set where someone uses the same approach regardless of the challenge will damage relationships.
Jeff and I discuss how we can experiment with different styles, practice our approach with the goal to make difficult conversations, smoother and less challenging.
