Do you use ‘You’ statements?

Yes or yes.  I haven’t met anyone yet who doesn’t and I’ve been paying attention for over 30years, since I took my first leadership communications and conflict management course.

Has someone ever told you the right way to use ‘You’ statements?

My wife was recently told by a colleague that she could be better with her ‘You’ Statements, so we brainstormed and I thought I would share what we came up with.

She’s a great communicator in most ways. One of her best traits is that she’s willing to acknowledge when she’s made a mistake and she goes back to clarify and resolve when she makes a mistake. After thinking about it, she plans her 2nd conversation for resolve and it works 99% of the time. Going back to resolve something you’ve communicating incorrectly takes courage and resilience.

Good communication skills and habits help build resilience and courage. Do you want more resilience? Do you want more courage?
