Negotiating with those we love
Dr. Alan Headey
Clinical Psychologist
Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital and Mater Health
True or False?
Diabetes is the leading cause of…
- Eye disease (retinopathy)
- Kidney disease (nephropathy)
- Amputations
- Premature death
FALSE!
Well controlled diabetes is the leading
cause of….
NOTHING!
You need to understand RISK
• What is HbA1c?
• Why is it important?
• Is it the only thing that matters?
Let’s talk about negotiation
Story time…
Positional Bargaining
• We focus on our interests, and this
prevents us from understanding their
interests.
Good negotiation
• Ask
• Listen
• Explore options
• Agree on criteria to evaluate whether it
worked
• “Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us
never fear to negotiate”
- JFK
Common Mistakes We Make
Threats / Rewards
It’s OK to Discuss Safety – but the
“how” matters
“Speak when you are angry
and you will make the best speech you ever regret.”
Ambrose Bierce
Strike Back
“If you are angry count to 10, if
you are very angry count till 100”
Jefferson Davis
Antidote: Give yourself time
• “Hmmm…. let me think about that."
• WAIT TILL 8!
Give in
• Because it’s easier
• Because I feel guilty
• Because I was rushed
• Because I did not say, “Let me think about it”
Antidote: Go to the Balcony
• Observe
• Think
• Talk
Disengage
• “Stepping back” might seem like a good idea at
the time
• The ‘assignment’ is almost always too tough
• Support is always required
• If you are disengaging, it is a sign that you need
help. That is, someone to reflect with you.
