In a difficult conversation, one party is usually looking for answers.
Why something was said, or why something did or didnt happen.
In tough talks like that, silence can be your greatest ally.
People dont like silence; thats why awkward silences are moments so many people have a go at avoid.
Remaining silent plays to your advantage.
This is a great tool to use in negotiations and other difficult conversations.
Just make certain you resist the urge to move the conversation forward until you get your answer.
Silence can go both ways too.
When a tough question comes your way,embrace the silent pausethat will come along with it.
Take the time you better process your response and answer when youre ready.
With a little silence, you could take control of the conversation and get exactly what you hoped get.
