My new book is on the near, near horizon. It’s called How to Work with (Almost) Anyone, and if you interact with other human beings in your life, this might be a helpful book for you. It goes live on June 27th, and I’ve got some terrific pre-order bonuses, which you can find linked below.
In this episode, you’ll hear about one of the five questions of the keystone conversation; the ‘bad date’ question. Then, Jennifer McCollum, CEO of Linkage, shares a story that builds delightfully on that very question.
Michael reads from Chapter 5 of his newest book, ‘How to Work with (Almost) Anyone.’ [reading begins at 1:12]
Hear us discuss:
- “There is ‘wisdom in the wound.’” [4:33]
- The contributing factors in the death of a working relationship: “It wasn’t just you and them, the time and place always influence what happens.”
- Jennifer McCollum on her worst possible relationship: “Regardless of whether or not I’m the leader, I learned that I need to honor and value the uniqueness that each team member brings.” [7:14]
