- Begin with praise and honest appreciation. Starting with positive feedback makes the other person more receptive to criticism or suggestions for improvement. It helps in establishing a positive environment where the other person feels appreciated and respected.
- Call attention to people's mistakes indirectly. Direct criticism can make people defensive and resistant to change. However, addressing mistakes indirectly can be a less threatening way to point out areas that need improvement.
- Talk about your own mistakes before criticizing the other person. This demonstrates humility and makes your critiques more acceptable. By showing that you too are fallible, you create an environment where mistakes are viewed as opportunities for growth, not as failures.
- Ask questions instead of giving direct orders. This encourages participation, making people feel part of the decision-making process. It gives them a sense of control and ownership over their work, which can be more motivating than simply following orders.
- Let the other person save face. Allow people to correct their mistakes without feeling embarrassed or devalued. This maintains their dignity and self-respect, which is crucial for maintaining a positive relationship.
- Praise every improvement, no matter how small. Positive reinforcement is a powerful tool for encouraging continued improvement. By acknowledging and celebrating progress, you foster motivation and confidence.
- Give the other person a fine reputation to live up to. This strategy inspires people to better themselves in order to meet your positive expectations. By expressing your belief in their potential, you encourage them to strive to reach it.
- Use encouragement. Make the fault seem easy to correct. Encouragement, instead of criticism, can inspire people to change and grow. If people believe they can easily improve or correct their faults, they're more likely to try.
- Make the other person happy about doing the thing you suggest. People are more likely to change their behavior if they see how it benefits them. Make sure to communicate the personal benefits they can gain from doing what you suggest.

- The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it. Arguments often breed resentment and rarely resolve disagreements effectively. Instead of arguing, try to understand the other person's viewpoint and engage in a civil discussion. This approach promotes understanding and cooperation rather than hostility.
- Show respect for the other person's opinions. Never say, "You're wrong." Directly attacking someone's opinions can lead to defensiveness and close the door to further conversation. Instead, try to show understanding and respect for their viewpoint, even if you disagree. This approach can lead to more open, productive discussions.
- If you're wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically. Admitting our mistakes can have a disarming effect. It shows our humility and integrity, and it can foster respect and trust in our relationships. Additionally, it can make it easier for others to admit their mistakes too.
- Begin in a friendly way. Starting conversations in a friendly manner can set a positive tone for the interaction. It makes people more receptive to what you have to say and can facilitate a more open and constructive conversation.
- Get the other person saying "yes, yes" immediately. Starting with topics on which you agree can help build rapport and make the other person more receptive to your ideas. It's a way of establishing common ground before moving on to more contentious issues.
- Let the other person do a great deal of the talking. People value the opportunity to express their thoughts and feelings. By letting them talk, you're showing that you value their opinions, which can make them more open to your ideas.
- Let the other person feel that the idea is his or hers. People are more likely to accept and act upon ideas that they believe they had a part in creating. By involving others in the ideation process, you can foster ownership and commitment.
- Try honestly to see things from the other person's point of view. Empathy is a powerful tool in winning people to your way of thinking. It shows that you respect their opinions and understand their feelings, which can build trust and openness.
- Be sympathetic with the other person's ideas and desires. Sympathy can validate people's feelings and show that you care about their perspectives. This validation can make them more receptive to your perspective.
- Appeal to the nobler motives. People like to see themselves as good and principled. When we appeal to these self-perceptions, we can often sway opinions and inspire action.
- Dramatize your ideas. Making your ideas vivid and engaging can make them more persuasive. This doesn't mean being dishonest or exaggerated, but rather presenting your ideas in an interesting and compelling way.
- Throw down a challenge. People often rise to challenges, especially if they find them stimulating and engaging. By challenging others, we can stimulate their creativity and encourage them to engage more fully with our ideas.

- Become genuinely interested in other people. Show curiosity and care about others' lives and experiences. Building relationships involves mutual interest; if we demonstrate sincere interest in others, they are likely to reciprocate that interest.
- Smile. A simple smile can warm up social interactions and make you likable. Smiles are universal signs of friendliness and openness and can create a positive first impression.
- Remember that a person's name is, to that person, the sweetest and most important sound in any language. Using people's names in conversation personalizes your interactions. It shows attentiveness and respect towards the other person, which can help in building stronger connections.
- Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. People love to share their stories and experiences. By actively listening, you show respect for their thoughts and feelings and make them feel valued, which promotes stronger and deeper relationships.
- Talk in terms of the other person's interests. Discussing what interests the other person can keep the conversation engaging for them. This indicates that we value their interests and are willing to engage in topics that they enjoy.
- Make the other person feel important – and do it sincerely. Genuine acknowledgment of others' worth can boost their self-esteem and make them feel positively about you. Recognizing and respecting the importance of others shows our appreciation for their value and can enhance their feeling of self-worth.
