Excellent video. Obviously not everyone at Harvard has taken this lesson to heart. Thank you for this. Once again, very helpful

This was very interesting both as a teacher and a spouse. (Talk about communicating to a less than receptive audience!) I especially appreciate the advice for administrators.

Excellent. Full of useful information in a very concised video. Is she just a presenter or also author of this video? I think if all the videos of the KZfaq on selfhelp and related topic will be rated it will definitely be among the top 100. At least 20,000 videos I have watched so far

Useful. well presented, HBR view of common sense. I was looking for tips for general conversation. I know what gets attention in the business world. Conversations that could impact an employees salary or standing. Maybe add what food is being brought in for a lunch meeting, depends on how good the food is.

This seems like great general advice, AND sometimes, it's okay to show emotions at work. Sometimes, you can control your anger AND let it help motivate your team toward a goal. As a male in Western culture, I'm often encouraged to "be myself" or "take control," while my female counterparts are encouraged to follow all the guidelines in this video. While I find this advice worthwhile, I also understand that there's a time and a place for everything.

I want to know the brand and color name of her lipstick. It’s very pretty but not overwhelming.

The first test is to see if someone is actually open to listening. Without that, none of this will make a difference.

Very helpful and practical advice. Please correct the spelling of communicate in the slide on CENTER.

@TomMarcotte Ай бұрын

Aren’t some of these suggestions a little bit on the passive aggressive side?

@cwks3510 22 күн бұрын

Unfortunately the many good points, and overall message, are tarnished with several passive agressive recommendations and examples. Not for C-suite

Nice content and an up to the point presentation. I have to say a very poor script, in the beginning of the video it is recommended to not to use “But” and instead use “And”, even then “But” has been used a lot of times in the video. You can’t teach something what you are not following.
