The way a message or request is delivered makes a huge difference. We experience this every day when we ask for things from all the people in our lives – at work, in the grocery store, and with our families and friends.
“Asking nicely” yields better results than “rudely demanding.”
When it comes to leading a safety meeting for workers, the tone and delivery of your message is also critical. The best way is to treat workers with respect, show your belief in their intelligence, and inspire them to have confidence in themselves.
