TAKEAWAYS All humans share an inherent desire for survival, belonging, and personal growth. Fear triggers defensive reactions, hindering direct and clear communication. Active listening is the cornerstone of quality communication, and listening with empathy is the key to fostering understanding. Leaders must cultivate a workplace where employees feel psychologically safe to voice concerns and ideas, and doing so minimizes explosive conversations and encourages open dialogue. “Blame language” triggers defensive reactions, hindering the recipient's ability to absorb the message. Disagreements can offer us opportunities to self-reflect and reconsider our position. A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST ?
