Communication requires the right time and the right mentality. People will be willing to communicate if they are relaxed, affirmed, aware that the problem needs to be solved, and feel that the other party is thinking about themselves. If more than three of the above conditions are met, people will be willing to communicate.
2. Clarify the purpose of communication and communicate in an emotionally stable manner.
It is not to prove that you are right, nor to accuse the other party of being wrong, but to express your own needs, understand the needs of the other party, coordinate the needs of both parties, and finally reach an agreement.
3. The prerequisite for anyone to be willing to communicate is that their efforts are recognized and their difficulties are understood. If you first face If the other party is to blame and criticize, then the other party will have strong feelings of confrontation, and the purpose of communication will not be achieved.
