Paved With Good Intentions
I've worked at Apple and Amazon Web Services, as well as start ups here in Sydney, Australia. With nearly 20 years experience managing and growing organizations, I've learned that there's good, bad and ugly lessons to be learned -- and that the way to hell is paved with good intentions! I want to share my experiences and observations with you to help you on this journey.
Paved With Good Intentions
Difficult Conversations pt1: Preparation
•
James Wilson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We make difficult conversations so much worse for everyone by delaying, procrastinating, and ruminating. Don't delay, but do prepare. Own the message and deliver it with conviction. This is the first of 3 episodes on difficult conversations that will focus on preparing, being in the room and following up after a conversation.
The video is based on the article I wrote here:
