Lorsqu’un collègue remet en question votre leadership éclairé, il est crucial de répondre avec calme et justification. Pour défendre efficacement vos informations :
- Fournissez des preuves : étayez vos idées avec des données, des études de cas et des recherches pour renforcer votre crédibilité.
- Écoutez activement : comprenez leur point de vue pour répondre à des préoccupations spécifiques et faites preuve d’ouverture.
- Articulez clairement : Transmettez la raison d’être de vos pensées d’une manière à la fois convaincante et accessible.
Comment vous assurez-vous que vos idées professionnelles sont reçues avec le respect qu’elles méritent ?

When your thought leadership is being questioned by a colleague, defending your insights effectively involves a blend of confidence, evidence, and open-mindedness: 1. Stay Calm and Open: Respond calmly and without defensiveness. Show that you value their perspective, which can defuse tension and encourage a constructive dialogue. 2. Back up your insights with data, research, and case studies. Presenting facts and figures strengthens your position and demonstrates that your ideas are well-founded. 3. Explain the reasoning behind your insights. Misunderstandings can arise from a lack of information. Clearly outline how you arrived at your conclusions. 4. Remind your colleague of examples where your insights have led to positive outcomes.

Remember: when you’re defending, you’re losing. Lean in, embrace the questioning. Maybe there’s something for you to learn, either about the topic or about how others are digesting your perspective. Maybe there’s an opportunity to teach. Maybe there’s an opportunity to build to next-level thought by bringing your two heads together.

There’s no need for defensiveness. Open your mind to new learning - thus expanding and amplifying your position and evolving your capacity for originality and novelty. Genuine thought leadership is a collective phenomenon and not the domain of an individual to capture and defend.

"There is at least 10% of truth in everybody's opinion" the key is to find it. I am learning to avoid saying "Yes, BUT" in my business interactions and instead using "I agree with your perspective around [...] AND I would also like to add that [...]

Don't. Instead, be open-minded, get curious, ask them questions, and understand their perspective. Ask for data/evidence that supports their perspective (out of curiosity, not distrust) and see if it impacts your position on the issue. The best thought leaders are the ones who start conversations with their perspective, but are open to other perspectives; not the ones who blindly defend their positions.
