Let's back up a tic?!

ASK A question




                 © 2009 suemaree.me
ASK A question

to check out what's going on




                               © 2009 suemaree.me
What's going on?




                   © 2009 suemaree.me
What's happening?




                © 2009 suemaree.me

check




        © 2009 suemaree.me
check

to make sure you're understanding
    where they're coming from

       (Their perspective)



                               © 2009 suemaree.me
I'd like to make sure I've
   got this straight...




                      © 2009 suemaree.me
let's make sure we're all
   on the same page...




                    © 2009 suemaree.me
you think...




               © 2009 suemaree.me
you're concerned...




                 © 2009 suemaree.me
you'd like to...




                   © 2009 suemaree.me
next...




          © 2009 suemaree.me
Confirm




          © 2009 suemaree.me
confirm

   get confirmation from them that your
understanding of their perspective is accurate




                                      © 2009 suemaree.me
is that it?




              © 2009 suemaree.me
Am I understanding you
      correctly?




                   © 2009 suemaree.me
Yes? Great!




              © 2009 suemaree.me
they're not comfortable that
if
   your understanding of
 their perspective is accurate...
