The spoken word always has a greater impact than the written word because you can hear and see the emotions of the speaker. All too often written words are misconstrued because you can’t see or empathetically feel the other person’s emotions behind the words. How often have you sent an email or text only to have the recipient snap back at you? While the written word can be an effective tool at work, it’s the spoken word that can enact greater change. Here’s how inspiring conversations at work take everyone in a new direction without the fights and strife or negative verbal assaults.
Address Difficult Topics in Target Meetings Go beyond the annual training meetings to address difficult topics. For example, employees who want to interact on a personal and social level should not be harassed for making that choice. Have an open discussion with everyone on the floor about dating fellow employees. Make sure everyone can have their say, everyone who wants to be heard is heard, and discuss the ground rules for having this discussion before it begins. Planning or “designing” these discussions ahead of time keeps the conversation flowing https://reynaldoperezdc.net/sparking-inspiring-conversations/
