TIP OF THE DAY
Hi, this is Abdul Rehman.
Today, I want to share with you a tip to improve your communication skill with a technique called PACE PACE PACE LEAD.
The idea is to first follow the other person’s reality by agreeing with them or stating something that is true for them. This is called pacing. Then, you can gently guide them to a different perspective or outcome. This is called leading. By doing this, you can build rapport, trust, and influence with the other person.
Here’s an example of how to use PACE PACE PACE LEAD in a conversation:
• You: Hi, how are you today?
• Friend: I’m feeling stressed and overwhelmed. I have so much work to do.
• You: I understand how you feel. It can be hard to manage your time .(PACE)
• You: And you know what? You are not alone in this. Many people struggle with the same problem. (PACE)
• You: And there are some simple and effective ways to overcome this challenge. (LEAD)
• You: For example, You can also break down your work into smaller and manageable steps. (LEAD)
• You: How does that sound to you?
By using PACE PACE PACE LEAD, you can show empathy and understanding to the other person, while also offering them a solution or a suggestion that can help them. This way, you can have better conversations and relationships with anyone.
I hope this tip was helpful for you. Thank you for reading and have a great day! 😊
