Matt Abrahams: 本期节目讨论了多个沟通难题,包括如何应对打断、将口头沟通技巧应用于书面沟通以及在权力不平衡的情况下如何倡导变革。在应对打断方面,他建议预先设定预期和界限,例如在专业场合提前声明发言时间;如果被打断,可以使用复述技巧重新获得发言权。在将口头沟通技巧应用于书面沟通方面,他强调要了解受众,并根据受众调整语言风格和表达方式;运用结构化写作,例如“是什么-所以什么-现在做什么”结构或“问题-解决方案-益处”结构,可以提高书面沟通的清晰度和效率;完成书面稿件后,应请他人校对逻辑和流畅性,并大声朗读以检查表达效果。 Shawon Jackson: 有效沟通的起始点在于了解你的受众,思考他们的需求和期望。在沟通前进行调研和反思,了解受众的背景、知识和态度,从而更好地满足他们的需求。在缺乏权力的情况下争取改变,应该团结集体力量,共同发声;在与权力者沟通前,应了解他们的关注点和沟通偏好,以便更好地制定沟通策略;在争取改变的过程中,要坚持自身价值观,避免过早妥协。成功的沟通需要明确的目标,这有助于筛选信息,并判断自己是否适合进行沟通,或是否需要团队协作。成功的沟通也需要自我认知,了解自身沟通优势,并加以利用;还需要同理心,理解对方的兴趣和需求,进行有效的对话。
