The question "What does great support look like for you?", gives a person the chance to take responsibility to ask for what they need.

People shrug off the question "Can I help you?", don't ask for what they need & become resentful.

Why is this a powerful question?
* Often the first problem is not the real issue.
* The term "for you" makes it more personal & prompts deeper thought.
* Calms a conversation hijacked by negative emotion

A great way to manage the fight or flight alarm which often drags us into a passive or aggressive behaviour is to focus on our breathing.

Slowing down your breathing is a quick way to soothe the anxiety symptoms.

The stop, look, and listen road safety message we learned as kids is just as relevant as adults when used in the context of communication.

When was the last time that you asked for help?

How do we realise our potential?

Get clear on the one small piece of behaviour that you need to do differently from today in order to reach your potential. Not tomorrow, next week or when you come back from holiday.
