Difficult Conversations: The 9 Rules of Engagement
Each to his own without judgment
What you want for yourself, give to another
Change your perspective and you’ll change your perception
It’s not what you say, but how you say it
Perception is reality until proven otherwise
The path of least resistance is avoidance
Feelings aren’t right or wrong—they just are
Put others’ needs ahead of your own by treating them with dignity and respect, and expect them to respond in kind (“selfless leadership”)
Life begins at the end of your comfort zone ...
