Turtles are faster
So, we're almost halfway through the year. A good time to take stock: How are your good intentions from the beginning of the year coming along? Have you already given up? Or did you not set any at the beginning because you never keep them anyway?
Then let me start by saying: it's not up to you!
What Hillary didn't know
Today I want to let you in on a secret.
A secret that unfortunately not even Hillary Rodham Clinton knew and which could have served her well in her election campaign. And it might also serve Joe Biden in the upcoming debates.
Here it is: Basic Talk beats High Talk.
I am talking about a concept that was first introduced by Dr. Peter Modler, a German management consultant, coach and author. Dr. Modler has specialized in restructuring companies on the verge of bankruptcy. What he found out was that the companies which had women in the top management were more likely to recover. He also found that a lot of these women didn’t know how to deal with the power games the men played they worked with.
What he invented is a step-by-step model of effective communication: High Talk, Basic Talk and Move Talk.
