“I really don’t have time to discuss the obvious anymore. This task must simply be completed. I will keep pressuring you until it’s done – if not by pleading, shouting or blackmail, I’ll find another way. If not, I’ll be incredibly disappointed and that will also have consequences.” Do you know such people? Bosses of […]
Masters of one-liners will surely appreciate this. Not only them. However, building concise and succinct messages isn’t easy. Boiling down a lot of content into what’s most important, while maintaining sense and meaning – this is a task for a real master chef of a language kitchen. With this said, it’s worth understanding that some […]
Some people have the extraordinary ability to weave relationships from thousands of seemingly insignificant threads that together form an inseparable bond, while others twist together thick solid ropes for the same purpose. The effect and the goal are similar. Only the style is different. Differences in communication styles and preferences are not easy to diagnose […]
Longer pauses during a conversation may cause surprise and anxiety in some people. After all, such silences aren’t normal – something disturbing is going on here. On the other hand, it’s just a pause, a moment of silence to think. It’s not because one thinks too slowly, but because one thinks deeply and wants to […]
Speaking with users using a clear and understandable structure is one of the most desirable communication skills for a reason. It is not common and causes difficulty for many people. Wanting others to conform to the way you speak (because it’s cool and is yours) is as common as it is unreasonable. We are diverse […]
Sometimes it happens that both cultural and personality differences highlight differences between people at the same time. It seems that calling someone by their first name or using “Sir/Ma’am” is one of these types of behavior. The paradox of the situation is that both parties want the same thing. They want to achieve their goals […]
Shortening the proverbial communication distance is a symptom of great sympathy for people and a sign of a lot of trust. However, not everyone wants to build relationships so freely. For many, it is a risky and slow process, but it results in quite lasting and deep relationships. For such a person, there is no […]
This can cause quite a surprise, but using your sense of humor is not always advisable. Especially if you’re having a substantive conversation with a person focused around data, facts and you’re trying to organize everything precisely. It is said that a sense of humor helps to detect inconsistencies in ways of thinking, so it […]
People are interested in what they are interested in and there’s nothing wrong with that. But not necessarily all the topics you propose are interesting for others. The fact that they don’t say so is due to their psychological constitution, not necessarily their needs. They simply don’t have the determination and skill to cut through […]
To quote the classic Polish film Rejs: “At every meeting you have the same situation – someone has to start first.” It’s all but certain that around 40% of people will be happy to wait for such a person and will not dare to break the prevailing silence. They may not be second or third […]
“I generally talk to people a lot and they really like it. I’m often the center of attention.” Research shows that expressiveness in communication is a socially desirable trait. Additionally, when someone talks a lot, it takes up communication bandwidth and whether you like it or not, you have to listen to them. Everything seems […]
“There is no time to think, because there are messages and ideas all the time. It’s stressful. It shuts me down, I turn off. I need space to talk. Silence is such a space. When I talk to a certain person, there is no space. So I sit quietly and listen. I don’t like it […]
People who declare that they are only interested in facts after a steady stream of unnecessary nonsense sometimes disagree with this statement. Meanwhile, they are the ones who tend to be the biggest critics of a particular form of communication. They know exactly what they want and what they don’t. Minimalism in communication is also […]
Accepting the use of emoticons and even memes (including animated ones) in business is closely correlated to the age of both the recipient and the sender, as well as the industry they work in. How does this affect communication overall? The ratings vary. This is one of the examples that shows that the message, depending […]
Corporate Manager Brian Everyman’s goal is to establish formalized, flowery communication that respects his position in the hierarchy and the rules prevailing in his environment. So how should you prepare to better communicate with Brian? We suggest the following action plan. Practice your casual communication skills by practicing with people who are similar to Brian. […]
“I’m sorry you took it that way, because that wasn’t my intention” – professionals recommend that this phrase be used to cover injuries sustained in a social setting. We recommend taking a guide to interpersonal relations with you to help you navigate a safe path through that conversation. Em is the perfect guide for this. […]
People have very different boundaries. What is private to one person may be public to another. What is a non-committal question for one, will be an intrusion into their private life for another. These boundaries are set by our personality traits, cultural differences and personal experiences. The message for both sides could be for one […]
We, for example, like to address everyone informally but from time to time this comes back to bite us ;-). But a small misunderstanding doesn’t discourage us and we continue to do our own thing, but this is our conscious choice. Relationships are a minefield. That’s why we created a mine detector – we call […]
And yet they keep coming to me with issue after issue, almost out of spite. And if they’re not starting conversations (because they’re working remotely), they send endless emails or chat messages. A person can go crazy, right? If they only knew how much you didn’t like it… They probably wouldn’t behave in such an […]
Students perform better when they like their teacher and when the educational content is engaging. In the implementation of the first part, it will help us to adjust the tone and style of communication to the students’ needs. On the other hand, in the implementation of the second part, it is important to adjust the […]
Sometimes personalization is impossible. If only because there is one person speaking to many people at the same time, e.g. to an entire team. Nevertheless, some common preferences can be identified for a group of people. We can call it collective personalization. It’s possible, but it doesn’t guarantee that everything will go perfectly. Therefore, in […]
Ambition is one of those qualities that we greatly respect, and the goal itself is undoubtedly worth emulating. At the same time, it is very difficult – and we like the challenge. It just so happens that this is exactly the same goal that guided us when we thought about creating our solution. We turned […]
A siren has just gone off in many suspicious heads and red flags have started waving. Just think about how many risks are hidden in this statement! By the way, do you know the phrase “to see a red flag”? It must have been invented by someone with innate caution and limited trust. These are […]
And we know many people who don’t have the slightest desire to comply with this wish. They’re tired of all this empathy. They want the world to finally start focusing on the important issues. Usually on their preferences. It would follow that, in principle, everyone would like the world to recognize preferences, although some want […]
In Ray Dalio’s book, The Principles, such a corporate world is presented clearly and transparently. This is a real example that transparent communication in a company is possible. Unfortunately, many great players from the best universities have failed mentally under the pressure of ubiquitous truth. It is an environment only fit for the few. I […]
“The ball is round and there are two goals” – to quote Kazimierz Górski (no, we are not football fans). By this, we mean that teams in an organization compete for resources in order to achieve a common goal more effectively. However, no one needs to be made aware that well-coordinated teams can do more, […]
Some people do not like hierarchy, others cannot imagine life without it. What is it like to meet people with such divergent attitudes? A lot of fun until you’re one of them. Cultural differences are a serious problem. You don’t see them until they appear. And when they appear, they immediately cause tension and sometimes […]
Rather, we suggest measuring the level of demotivation. Research shows that most employees lose a significant amount of motivation in the first months of work, and the situation doesn’t improve much thereafter. There are at least three reasons for a loss of motivation: lack of respect, lack of achievement, and poor relationships. Relationship building includes […]
We don’t either! We’re not really born to be empathetic. We just want to communicate well without much effort. So as to avoid unnecessary mishaps and pursue the goals we set for ourselves. Figuring out who is who and how to address them is an extremely interesting task, but so energy-intensive that we have to […]
Some people are cordial, sincere and straightforward. For others, this approach is simple naivety and exposes them to problems. With the former, you can quickly move to action, and with the latter you won’t be able to accomplish anything without a long contract and tedious negotiations. Both approaches have their pros and cons. The point […]
