How to Correct Someone in Power Without Losing the Relationship
Episode notes
You were right, you said so in front of everyone, and it cost you the relationship.
When someone with power is wrong in front of their people, your correction lands as a hit to their standing, and it doesn't feel like information to them. The cleaner and more accurate you are, the deeper it cuts. They won't remember that you were right. They'll remember how it felt to be corrected in front of their boss.
In this episode, Jake breaks down how to correct a client, a partner or a boss in front of the room without humiliating them and without swallowing the truth. You'll learn to correct someone the way a good GPS does, fixing the route without shaming the driver. That way they walk out looking smart for updating their plan instead of small for getting it wrong.
Fix the path, protect the driver and win the point quietly. That's how you keep the room.
