#disagreement

2 public notes

Can you state the strongest version of the opposing view?

Disagreement becomes more useful when you respond to a position someone actually holds. Before criticising a proposal, describe its strongest reasonable argument and the concern behind it. A person resisting a new tool may be worried about training time, rather than opposed to improvement itself.

Keep a disagreement about the issue in front of you

A disagreement becomes harder to resolve when one action turns into a verdict on someone's character. The kitchen was left untidy describes a situation. You are always selfish adds a much larger accusation. Keeping the issue specific makes it clearer what needs to change.
