I am a career Foreign Service Officer, a diplomat. When I boil my job down, it is all about relationships and curiosity. My task is often to convince others to do something or accept a point of view. I do my best work when I really care about finding out what the other person thinks and feels. My work is less effective when I try to convince them by showing why I am right. I think the difference is engagement versus messaging. When you engage you listen and accept they YOU may change your own point of view based on what you hear. If you are curious, you are engaging. This book makes a lot of sense to me. I am going to recommend that my junior officers read it. It will make us better diplomats.
