Proverbs 12:18 (MSG) Rash language cuts and maims, but there is healing in the words of the wise.
Change has been a hot topic recently and change is at least painful and at worst potentially destructive.
Positive change in our relationships takes intentionality. People are sometimes “destroyed” by what is said and how it is said as they spontaneously react negatively to the change.
The wise leader recognizes the various impacts of change on the team and carefully chooses language and speaks words that heal by creating value and meaning for each person experiencing the change.
Are you leading with words that heal or maim?
