Fast Company Now

An interesting book I read the other day - Fierce Conversations by Susan Scott. FastCompany has a few interesting questions taken from it. A few of my notes are:

1. If you decide on having a serious 'talk' go ahead and do it before its too late. Make sure you get the the point early on and don't beat around the bush. I just had mine at the office today. Its too early to judge the results, but I am optimistic.

2. Remember to note 'whats at stake', what you want to 'resolve' and bring the other party in the discussion.

3. Make the first pitch short - 60 seconds at the most. Grab their attention.

4. Don't be afraid to be to the point.
