From Idea Meetings
- From a landlord perspective, it's worth researching if month to month is worse than short term leases in terms of notices to vacate
- When you're confrontational, people stop talking to you, as well as listening to you
- It's not about winning. If your point of view is different, the direct approach doesn't work
- What is the goal in discussion? Is it to win? You might get exactly what you expected, or not at all what you expected.
- The best solution is to make the other person's will yours
- Nothing to do with winning or losing
- You want to frame your opinion as your opinion
- Compromise is another way of (members differed):
- losing half
- gaining all
- In the glass is half full analogy, the engineer sees the glass as twice as tall as it needs to be
- People expect you to be confrontational if you're on a stage
- Chocolate rain
