In a difficult conversation, I asked a question I didn't already know the answer to before saying my piece.
Ch5, the question ratio
I let someone finish a thought I had already anticipated the end of.
Ch5
I thanked someone for something specific rather than something general.
Ch6, specificity
I gave someone close to me my full attention, with no screen in reach, for at least twenty minutes.
Ch6, attention
The practices
If Your People is your lowest domain, the full Stride Score gives you one of these to run for ninety days.
- In your next hard conversation, ask one question you do not already know the answer to before you say what you came to say.
- One specific thanks, to one person, this week. Name the thing, include when it happened, say why it mattered.
