Have a Conversation

A simple checklist to talk things through calmly and leave the conversation in a better place than it started.

Steps
  1. 01
    Decide what you want to talk about
    Keep it to one topic. Don’t try to solve everything at once.
  2. 02
    Be clear about your own point first
    Before talking, take a moment to understand what you actually think.
  3. 03
    Listen without interrupting
    Let the other person finish, even if you disagree.
  4. 04
    Repeat what you understood
    Say it back in your own words to make sure you understood correctly.
  5. 05
    Share your point calmly
    Explain how you see it, without trying to win the argument.
  6. 06
    Find one point of agreement
    Even a small overlap is enough.
  7. 07
    Decide what happens next
    That might be a decision, a follow-up talk, or simply stopping here for now.
