Last night the Brotherhood lads had a discussion on non-defensiveness, how it differs from assertiveness and why it can be more effective in various situations.
We shared personal experiences, and looked at how this approach can work in different contexts, from personal relationships to professional settings.
We explored:
- Non-Defensiveness and Its Benefits - why it's better to NOT defend yourself
- Understanding Defensiveness in Communication - how it looks and sounds when we get defensive
- Defensive Emotions and Triggers - what feelings trigger us and what that tells us
- Challenging Client Management Strategy - how non-defensive applied to managing the most difficult man I've ever met
- Non-Defensiveness Discussion and Strategies - hot to play with this in real life conflicts
Excellent conversation, and we'll probably do a follow-up to explore the technical how-to aspects in more detail.
