Hi John,

How have you addressed workplace disagreements this past year?

If you're like most, you've had to address them via phone, video, email, or—gulp!—text message. How's that working out for you?

Please spare three minutes for this short survey and tell us about your experience of holding crucial conversations virtually. Your participation helps uncover important workplace trends and behaviors—and ensures you'll be entered to win a $50 Amazon gift card. Our way of saying thanks.

 
 

Also, check out our recent press release that highlights findings from our last survey.

"Power is your capacity to make a difference in the world by influencing the states of other people... We gain power by acting in ways that improve the lives of other people in our social networks. Our power is granted to us by others. This is true at work, in social organizations of different kinds, and in our friendships, romantic partnerships, and families."

That's all for this week. We have new episodes of One Productive Minute and How Do I Say That? coming soon. Thanks for spending some time with us and, again, thank you for participating in the survey above.
