If leaders make wrong decisions, how should they be reminded to be more easily adopted? Here are three tips for leaders to recognize their mistakes and take your suggestions.
First move: Praise suggestion method
The so-called praise suggestion method is that we first praise the boss's proposal, give him a good impression, and then put forward some immature suggestions in reverse, so that the leader can find that he also has some things to make up for. We must not directly point out his loopholes, which will hurt his face. For example, you can say, "Leader, you are so bold. I didn't think of this before, but I thought of a proposal." Then you can say your own opinion about this proposal. If the leader finds his own loophole, he will easily accept your opinion.
Second move: Request for interpretation
The method of asking for explanation is to pretend not to understand him, go to consult the leader, and ask the leader to comb again for everyone. In fact, he may find loopholes in his own process of combing. So we don't need to decorate ourselves as if we are very smart, but let you act like a fool. For example, you can ask "Leader, I think the aspect you just mentioned is very exciting, but we don't know how to implement it specifically. Can you help us sort it out?"
The third move: hypothetical suggestion method
It is to make leaders realize that this plan is not complete and needs to be further improved by raising a hypothetical question. For example, you can first affirm the leadership, "Leader, I think this direction you proposed is very good. If we get through in the future, it will definitely be an excellent business model. But now, according to our users' portraits, they will accept our products as soon as they come. Do they have this habit? What if they don't like us?" You still don't directly put forward the mistakes of leaders, but put forward your own concerns, which is equivalent to that you are standing on the same line to analyze how we should resist this risk in the future. In fact, when you raise such a question, leaders will also find that there are mistakes in this regard.
The above is how we can reasonably and tactfully remind leaders when they make wrong decisions.
