  • I'm not sure if I am great at that. I am, however, always thinking about how I can pose and deliver an idea or question to someone to encourage them to buy into it or not. How that is delivered and one's choice of words can definitely influence someone's action or reaction to the proposal.
    • Linda Joy
      I bet you are good at that! Have you done this a lot in your profession?
  • Yes. It's some kind of instinct I've developed over time. It's the body language I can read this
