The Point:
Some people call it personality conflict. You know the situation. Where
you can't seem to get along with a few people, and can't really figure out why?
Much of the time, the problem is one of communication, both your's and how the
other person communicates.
You can't do a lot
about other people, but you can learn to change the words you use to reduce
unnecessary conflict in the workplace. This card teaches you to eliminate
phrases and words that are likely to cause conflict, and explains how to replace
them with other ways to say things. In other words we explain how to sound more
cooperative and less confrontational.
Here's a quote from the
actual card:
People look
at your communication BEHAVIOR. If it is confrontational, people will react
negatively. If it is cooperative, even difficult people will be more likely to
"work with you". You can save yourself a considerable time, aggravation and
stress by learning how to use language in cooperative ways.
Not only
that, your organization is much more likely to recognize your ability, if you
are a more cooperative sounding person.
