Eighty Seconds of Development
Stepping into Confrontation
The one thing that no one can defer or avoid is confrontation, whether this is as a player with a coach or a leader with an employee. At some point, there will be a difficult situation where one becomes irritated and leads to a confrontation. So, how do you handle these situations? Do you cool off and approach the situation later? Do you allow the berating that you are used to and just accept it? Or do you step right into it and communicate?
I advise you to perform the latter. There is only one way to handle confrontation: step right into it. Lean into this situation with respect and honesty. Do not be passive-aggressive or demeaning. Stepping into it with honesty and respect will lead to clarity and build connection. So, step into confrontation and never lean away.
