This was an interesting conversation with my 11 year old and 5 year old daughters about 'articulation'.
Younger one: I was bullied in school today. Do you also get bullied akka (sister)?
Elder one: Bullies are scared of me because I can convincingly articulate the sequence of events that happened with the bullies, to the teacher. So they never come near me.
Younger One: You are a tattle tale.
Elder one: No. I confront them first. Only if it doesn't work I use my articulation technique.
Me: That's interesting! In corporate, we use our articulation skills not only to deal with bullies, but also to build a good rapport with our sub ordinates, peers, management and customers. The better we articulate our ideas/concerns honestly to them, the better relationship we build with them.
To sum up, you are a typical corporate material 😂
Elder one: No thanks!
