Managers Use Strong Language, Not Weak Language
Manage episode 318002408 series 2995926
When you use weak words or you kneecap your sentences, people notice - either subconsciously or consciously - and they treat you as someone who’s not confident and doesn’t deserve to be a people manager. They treat you like someone who isn’t sure, even though you were trying to be polite. They treat you like someone who didn’t do the work you did, even though you’re the resident expert in the room.
Your words matter.
Use strong words and people will respect your strength of character. Use strong words and your point of view will be valued more often.
There are words to avoid and words to start using. Let’s go into words to avoid first. This might be the hardest part for you if you’re used to using these words. I know I still slip up every now and then.
