Understanding Different Perspectives:

Step into Their Shoes:  Each department has its own metrics for success.  Marketing might prioritize customer acquisition, while engineering focuses on product quality and  feasibility.  Understanding their goals fosters empathy and reveals potential areas of collaboration.

Communicate Clearly: Clearly outline your desired outcomes and explain how they align with the company's overall objectives. Frame your requests in a way that resonates with their priorities.

Finding Common Ground:

Focus on Benefits:  Negotiation shouldn't be a win-lose scenario.  Instead, seek solutions that provide value to all parties involved. Brainstorm creative solutions that address everyone's concerns.

Be Prepared to Compromise:  Recognize that concessions are often necessary. Identify areas where you have flexibility and be willing to make trade-offs that won't severely hinder your core objectives.

Active Listening and Collaboration:

Listen Attentively:  Pay close attention to their concerns and reservations. Ask clarifying questions to ensure a complete understanding of their perspective.

Collaborative Problem-Solving:  Work together to address challenges.  Their insights might reveal unforeseen roadblocks or opportunities you haven't considered.

Maintaining Positive Dynamics:

Respectful Demeanor:  Throughout the negotiation, maintain a professional and respectful tone.  Avoid accusatory language or dismissive attitudes.

Focus on the Future: Don't dwell on past disagreements.  Keep the conversation focused on reaching a mutually beneficial solution moving forward.

Consistency is key to measurable progress. Confidence is grown from control and preparation.

IELTS with Nick - World Knowledge 

Do people today work too much? 

Picture this: you’re standing at the coffee machine and a colleague comes over. You don’t know him very well. You both say hello and then you can’t think of much to say. You mumble* something about the weather (if you are British this is a sure thing. We love to talk about the weather) and then… nothing. 

Your mind goes blank* and you stand awkwardly looking at the coffee, wondering why it is taking so long to make…

Or picture this: you’ve joined a meeting online and there are one or two colleagues already there. You’re waiting for others to join and you have to pass the time. But the same thing happens … you can’t think of anything interesting to say and there is awkward silence….

In these situations we need small talk.

Episode 7: Small talk at work: an English learner’s guide

🌑 El Tren de las 3:33 🚆

Samuel odiaba viajar en tren, pero aquella noche no tuvo más opción. Su auto se había averiado y debía llegar a su ciudad antes del amanecer. Al llegar a la estación, notó algo extraño: el único tren disponible era el de las 3:33, una hora que le resultó inquietante. Subió al vagón y encontró el interior vacío, excepto por un hombre al fondo que lo observaba sin parpadear. El tren arrancó con un sonido metálico que resonó como un lamento.

A medida que avanzaba, Samuel sintió un frío creciente. Miró por la ventana y se dio cuenta de que el paisaje no cambiaba. Siempre veía el mismo bosque oscuro, como si el tren avanzara en círculo. Se levantó para preguntar al hombre del fondo, pero cuando llegó allí, el asiento estaba vacío, y en su lugar, había una nota: "Este no es un tren cualquiera. No intentes bajarte".

El corazón de Samuel se aceleró. Corrió hacia la puerta y trató de abrirla, pero estaba sellada. De repente, una voz metálica por los altavoces dijo: "Próxima parada: el olvido". Miró su reflejo en la ventana y vio al hombre de antes mirándolo desde el otro lado del cristal, ahora con una sonrisa macabra. El tren nunca llegó a su destino. Al día siguiente, el jefe de estación encontró el vagón completamente vacío, excepto por una nota pegada en la ventana: "El tren de las 3:33 siempre necesita un nuevo pasajero".
