Personal question · Communication, Self-awareness

The conversation you put off

Some conversations are easy to avoid: raising a problem with a friend, telling a coach or manager something they will not like, or admitting you disagree.

The two questions

  1. 1Tell us about a difficult conversation you were nervous to have. How did you approach it?
  2. 2Looking back, what would you say or do differently, and how has that changed how you handle hard conversations now?

What raters look for

Communication
Listens first, speaks clearly and respectfully, and adapts the message to the listener.
