4 Getting Past No: Don’t Push: Build Them a Golden Bridge
In this episode of "Let's Talk About Conflict," we explore why people say "no" and how to help them move toward "yes." Drawing on William Ury's wisdom, we uncover the underlying reasons for resistance—whether it's the fear of looking foolish, protecting their ego, or unmet interests. Conflict often arises from what we overlook, and the fear of losing face can keep people entrenched in their positions. To resolve this, it's crucial to build a "golden bridge" that allows the other side to come on board without feeling pressured. By carefully considering their perspective and going slow to go fast, you can create a solution that everyone can agree on. Join us as we discuss how to guide others through conflict without pushing them away. https://www.williamury.com/getting-past-no/
