1
Communicating well
2
with your team is about establishing trust and a foundation for mutual respect.
3
Let's look at some scenarios that show both the wrong and right way to communicate with your team.
4
Really?
5
You're an hour late.
6
Now the post office is closed.
7
I just forgot, okay?
8
You're so irresponsible.
9
What's wrong with you?
10
I just forgot, okay?
11
You're grounded.
12
You're so unfair.
13
The father was worried and scared that something had happened to his son.
14
That fear and anger was directed toward his teen in an unproductive way.
15
It's okay to be upset in this situation, but dumping those feelings on his son won't help him from being late in the future.
16
For a more productive conversation, frame the exchange with I statements that explain reasoning and fosters a two-way communication.
17
Hey, son.
18
Hey.
19
I was worried about you.
20
We agreed that you'd be home an hour ago, since I needed to use the car.
21
When I didn't hear from you, I thought something bad might have happened.
22
Sorry, I was at Sean's house.
23
We were all hanging out, and I didn't realize that it was so late until I got in the car to come home and sold the time.
24
Listen, I'm glad you're okay, but why didn't you call when you saw what time it was?
25
I don't know.
26
I guess that I knew I messed up.
27
Yeah, it's human to lose track of time, especially when you're having fun.
28
Mistakes happen, but part of growing up is keeping your agreements.
29
I need to know that if we agree on driving privileges and a time that you have to be home, you're gonna stick to it.
30
You get that, right?
31
So, since you were late, your weekday curfew is going to be 6 o'clock for the next month.
32
Really?
33
A whole month?
34
If you can show that you can come home on time, we can talk about moving it back to 7 o'clock.
35
Agreed?
36
Agreed.
37
Look, it's really important that you don't hide your mistakes from me.
38
And hey, I don't expect you to be perfect, but I can't help you if you don't communicate with me.
39
Owning up to your mistakes shows that you're responsible, but hiding them, trying to avoid the consequences,
40
that shows me you're not being responsible.
41
Make sense?
42
I get it.
43
Hey, is there anything else you want to talk about?
44
Actually, yeah.
45
The father used I statements to draw his son's attention to the fact that there are consequences for his actions.
46
And this opened the door for his son to share his other concerns.
47
Everyone else gets to stay out later, how come my curfew is only 7?
48
Okay, some of your friends may stay out later than you do.
49
And others probably come home earlier.
50
7 o'clock on a weeknight works well because you usually have homework to do.
51
And you have to get up really early for school.
52
If you get in late, then you're up even later doing homework.
53
It's hard for you to get up in the morning, and then you're all cranky.
54
You're dead, really?
55

56
All cranky.
57
I'm sorry, cranky was a poor choice of words.
58
I shouldn't have said that.
59
What I'm trying to say is that we all need enough sleep to stay healthy.
60
The curfew is only there to keep you safe and healthy, not to control your personal life.
61
If there's a specific event that you want to stay out later for, we can discuss that on a case-by-case basis.
62
That's why your weekday curfew is 7 o'clock.
63

64
House rules work best when teens understand why the rules are in place, not just that rules exist and they must comply with them.

and his son took The father recovered by acknowledging his mistake and also modeled taking responsibility for his actions.

Gotta go, he's waiting.
84
Ho ho ho, hold on a second.
85
I thought we had agreed that you wouldn't ride with a newly licensed driver.
86
Remember, it's the law in our state.
87
I'd be worried you'd get into an accident with an inexperienced driver.

Mom, he's really smart and I know he is a good driver.

Once he gets a little more experience.

The state has laws like this for a reason.

Even when I'm not around.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
