Your partnership is strained by dismissive behavior. How can you effectively communicate your feedback?

Well, obviously, they are not happy. Ask them why. It may or may not have to do with you/your company, but if this relationship is more than merely transactional to you, their response should matter to you.

A few tips: 1. Don't project someone else's disregard based on their lack of behavior. One of my partners became unresponsive, did not answer phone calls and did not respond to emails for an extended period of time. I could have perceived it as behavior directed at me. It turned out that he was having a difficult time in his personal life. 2. Be clear about how you feel. Do you feel disrespected? Tell your partner about it. He will correct you, understand how you may feel, or together you will work out a formula for further cooperation (or discontinuation). 3. I noticed that the longer the relationship and the more interactions, the better understanding and the lower the risk of inappropriate behavior. So the best way is... perseverance ;-)

I recommend preparing before providing feedback on dismissive behavior. Be clear about the points to address and choose an appropriate time and place. Actively listen to understand the other person's perspective and propose practical solutions to improve the situation. Emphasize the importance of partnership by affirming the value of collaboration and commitment to the relationship. Communicating feedback with empathy and clarity can transform challenges into opportunities for growth and strengthen the professional relationship.

* Focus on "I" statements: Avoid accusatory language and focus on how their dismissive behavior makes you feel. For example, instead of saying "You never listen to me," try "I feel unheard when you brush aside my concerns." * Pick the right timing: Don't bring up sensitive issues when your partner is stressed or preoccupied. Choose a calm and neutral moment for a conversation. * Be specific: Provide specific examples of the dismissive behavior you're experiencing. This helps your partner understand the impact of their actions. * Listen actively: Once you've expressed your concerns, give your partner a chance to respond. Listen attentively to their perspective without interrupting.

Dismissive behavior will ruin an effective partnership. Regardless of which entity has more perceived power in a situation, there's a reason the partnership exists in the first place. Referring back to the crux of WHY the partnership began in the first place and HOW it continues to deliver value to both the dismissive entity can help recenter the balance of power in a partnership. Approach with empathy and focus the lack of satisfaction on business proceedings, rather than "you" or "I"statements.

Whenever this situation occurs, before giving feedback to the partner, it is more important to understand the “why” rather than “who” promised this attitude and disagreement that could contaminate the relationship and put the success of the venture at risk. Only with this understanding will it be possible to prepare feedback capable of restoring the balance of the partnership and guaranteeing the return to the correct path to achieve the expected results.

Se existe um comportamento desdenhoso num cenário de parcerias, isso fere o que acredito serem princípios básicos que s?o confian?a e ganha-ganha. é um problema sério que vai, inevitavelmente, causar transtornos e diminuir resultados. O teu parceiro está confortável e seguro do arranjo? Vocês est?o confortáveis? Como fica o cenário com uma parceria com esse mecanismo? Como ficaria se se desfizesse a parceria? S?o quest?es que precisam ser discutidas abertamente, come?ando uma conversa sobre esse desconforto. A tendência pode ser deixar isso na sala como um elefante branco, mas acredito ser o cerne pra se abrir uma conversa de m?o dupla.

Maintaining Patience is crucial when addressing dismissive behavior in a partnership. Rushing a confrontation can escalate tensions. Instead, focus on creating a calm and open environment. Choose a private setting and time when both parties are relaxed. Clearly articulate your concerns without blaming or accusing. Use "I" statements to express your feelings. Listen actively to their perspective, aiming for understanding rather than immediate resolution. It is important to remember, building trust and open communication takes time.

One thing I have found helpful in dealing with a partner with dismissive behaviour is to maintain patience as dismissive behaviour could be a personality trait which is an enduring character. Continue to be receptive, show respect for your partner's opinions and never say "you are wrong". Be transparent in all your dealings as this will enhance development rather than dismissive behaviour and social divisiveness.

Penso que é importante fazer boas perguntas, levando o parceiro a exercitar a empatia. é esperado que também n?o concorde que hajam com desdém com ele. Outro ponto é conduzir a conversa, acusando o comportamento dele e n?o a pessoa, para n?o feri-lo e mostrando com clareza a necessidade de mudan?a.
