I wrote this piece after recognizing a particularly aggressive Senior VP was completely shutting down an entire small team with her communication style. Though this particular manager was ultimately correct in her reasoning, her disagreement style was a big problem for team cohesion and I thought it warranted writing about.
Good article. I thought it was well written and definitely on target about to disagree effectively.
Maybe in a follow up article you could provide some examples (either real or made-up) of ineffective and effective disagreement? Personally I learn best from examples.
Yeah, I think that examples were my weak spot here. I'll probably roll some examples into the companion article yet to be written: how to agree effectively.
