How to Have Tough Conversations


Listen Later

1.29 As human beings and especially as leaders, we’re often required to tell people difficult things. The only way to avoid having tough conversations is to live in seclusion, which is not really healthy or possible. We may not want to have these difficult conversations because our natural inclination is to avoid conflict; we know the news we’re delivering is hard to hear, or we want to escape delegating a difficult task.

I don’t know about you, but I find it really difficult to tell people hard things. It’s stressful. It drains my energy. Truthfully, it’s one of the things I hate most about leadership. In this post, I want to share with you a simple formula that has helped me make tough conversations a little bit easier. Perhaps not all of the time, but most of the time you can successfully deliver negative news by using this simple formula.
