Effective leaders spend a lot of time refining their communication style. Some language choices that can help you sound more powerful and confident at work:
?Avoid -“I know how busy you are…” or “I hate to bother you…”
Use – “Can you please do xxx”.
Logic – Assuming that you are creating a burden places you at a disadvantage. Be straightforward instead.
?Avoid – “You’re welcome” when someone thanks you, say something like “I’m happy I was able to help you.”
Use – “I’m happy I was able to help”
Logic – It makes an individual feel good that you went the extra mile for them.
?Avoid – “I can’t’ or ‘I’m not able to –“
Use – “Here’s what I can do for you – “ or “ I’ll find out”
Logic – Focus on the positive rather than an upright no when declining a work request.
?Avoid – “It was nothing…” or “It could be better…”
Use – “I’m glad you liked it:”
Logic – There is a tendency among many of us to discount praise as a knee-jerk reaction. We end up watering down compliments.
Being more precise and action-oriented in your vocabulary can make a difference in clarity and how others perceive you
