Have you ever experienced a team member resistant to your collaboration? Somebody not replying to your emails? Not giving you the information you urgently need? Not accepting your meeting invites?
When this happens we may start thinking that they’re doing this deliberately, it’s personal, maybe even ‘they don’t like me’ or ‘they don’t value me.’
However, if this person is key to getting your tasks done and projects delivered, you need to find a way to move through the resistance- here are my strategies to help you.
What you will learn in this episode:
- What we think when we meet resistance from others
- What can’t we see
- Start with understanding
- Assume positive intent
- Consider how they like to communicate
- Invest in the relationship for the long term
- Work on the magic ratio
- Design the communication
- Developing connection takes time
