Based on fifteen years of research and consultations with thousands of people, Difficult Conversations pinpoints what works.
It teaches us to work through them by understanding that we're not engaging in one dialogue but three:
- The "what happened" conversation (what do we believe was said and done)
- The "feelings" conversation (the emotional impact on everyone involved)
- The "identity" conversation (what does this mean for everyone's opinion of themselves)
Use this ground-breaking, step-by-step book to turn your difficult conversations into positive, problem-solving experiences.
