61: How to take control of any conversation

Have you ever had a conversation go sideways? Afterwards think "If I had only"...or just not gotten the results you were hoping for? In this conversation, Jeremy Doran discusses the importance of gaining control of conversations and offers a method called PTSD (Preparation, Time, Subject, Deliverable) to help with this. He emphasizes the need for preparation, including researching and taking notes ahead of time, and suggests sharing an agenda if necessary. He also advises scheduling conversations and estimating the time needed, as well as informing the other person if there may be interruptions. Clarifying the subject of the conversation and stating the desired deliverable are also important. By following these steps, conversations can become more effective and productive.
