2 How to be specific? 2
3 Experience Cube What is it? Simple model you can follow when you want to have a learning conversation with someone (aka difficult conversation or a courageous conversation ) You can use this for conversations with your team, your supervisors, peers, even family members A way to take the conflict and blaming out of your conversation and refocus on what you really want to say - and on what you can learn from each other.
4 We see the world not as it is, but as we are. - the Talmud

6 Experience Cube Posi%ve Inten%on Observations Just the facts Thoughts Judgments/assumptions My story is Wants What do you want Feelings What are you feeling Glad, sad, mad, bad, afraid
7 The Framework: Positive Intention Positive Intention: What is the positive reason for having this conversation? What will be made better as a result? Both parties should share the positive intention to have a learning conversation.
8 The Framework: Observation Observations: This is observable, objective data. The facts. Keep it simple, clear, and direct Statements not Questions What a video camera would capture
9 The Framework: Thoughts Thoughts Assumptions you are making about the situation Stories that you are making up about the observable facts. Helpful language: In my experience How it occurred to me was The assumption I made around that is Things you need more information or clarity on Listen and ask questions
10 The Framework: Feelings Clearly describe how you are feeling During the situation how did you feel? How do you feel now? (e.g. Sad, Mad, Bad, Glad, Afraid) Ensure that you own your feelings: do not blame the other person for making you feel this way Use language that is appropriate for the environment

13 The Framework: Wants Your wants can be about awareness; understanding; behavior change. Remember it is up to the other person if they CHOOSE to do what you want. They have the CHOICE. Examples of wants: I want you to understand the impact this has on the team I want you to understand and follow safety rules - be in compliance I want you to arrive for work on time; I also want you to know what the consequences are if you don t I want you to work with me to find a solution to this issue Listen and hear clearly what others want Look for mutuality goal is to problem solve together
