Dealing with People – Words to Avoid


You most likely realise how the wrong tone of voice and unfavorable physique language can trigger problems when dealing with other individuals, particularly customers and employees. However, using the wrong phrases can also trigger problems.

There are certain “trigger” phrases that trigger individuals to turn out to be much more tough especially in emotionally charged situations and they should be avoided. These consist of:

* Have to – as in – “You will have to communicate to the product sales division yourself”

*I cannot or you cannot – as in – “I cannot do something about that” or “You cannot do that”

*I’ll attempt – as in – “I’ll attempt and communicate to finance division these days”

*But – as in – “I agree with what you are stating but??..”

*Sorry – as in – “I’m sorry ’bout that”

“What DO I say I hear you cry?”

Instead of the phrases “Have to” which are extremely managing type phrases, why not attempt – “Are you prepared to?” or just a straight – “Will you?.”

Cannot, can be changed with – “I’m unable to because?.”

“I’ll attempt,” which is pretty wishy-washy, can be changed with something much more sincere – “This is what I can do” or “This is what I’m unable to do”

“But” is a word that contradicts what was stated before it, replace it with – “And” or “However” (which is a soft ‘but’)

Instead of stating “but” you could depart it out altogether. For instance instead of – “I agree with what you are stating but I cannot assist you” use – “I agree with what you are stating. The reason I’m unable to assist you is??”

At the end of the day the answer to a consumer or 1 of your employees could be -”no”- nevertheless, choosing your phrases much more cautiously will have a much more constructive affect on how he or she reacts and ultimately responds to you.

“Sorry” is 1 of the phrases to steer clear of because it is so overused and it is lost its worth. Believe of the quantity of times you have complained or commented about something and you hear – “Sorry ’bout that.” If you are heading to use the “sorry” word then you need to use it as component of a entire sentence – “I’m sorry you have been receiving so many complaints Mary.”

Occasionally it is suitable to use the word ‘apologise’ instead of ‘sorry.’ “I apologise for not getting you that information faster.”

For smoother interactions, consider treatment with the phrases you use.
