Now it is time to put what you have learned into action.
Try it this week:
Throughout this week, take the time to plan your important communications ahead of time, using the tools you have learned.
1.
When you need to convey an important message, plan ahead using Feel, Know, Do.
2.
Use metacommunication in two ways in the next week:
- In an informal conversation, let the other person know what you want or need in the conversation ("let's choose sides and debate" or "I'm just trying to share some information with you, there's not much to discuss here").
- In a more structured interaction (a client meeting, a 1-1 review, or any other scheduled meeting), begin with setting and agreeing on how you will proceed together.
To take your learning further:
1.
Write down your key learnings from this chapter and the conversations you are going to practice your new tools in, and take them to your learning group meeting to discuss. You will find a guide for this session along with the key takeaways from this chapter in the Resources area, in the header bar.
You have completed this chapter!
Up next:
You will learn how to bring together all the learning from the first four chapters, to create inspired meetings.
Take a break before the next chapter. We'll be ready for you when you are back.
