PROMPT March 18th ▼

Does your communication style tend to be straightforward or subtle? Are you more likely to speak your mind or beat around the bush? Have you ever gotten into trouble because of your communication style?

For decades I have been in a position of authority. The buck stops here. I have found that because of my position and now because of my age, I am trusted and listened to. Communicating directly and honestly works best for me. Sometimes that can come across as harsh and I, therefore, do my best to temper my speech with empathy.
