Has the strong opinion of another persuaded you to change your point of view? The tactics of others can at times alter our position. Yet, when is it appropriate to yield and when do we hold on to what is true for us? This is not an easy question to answer and frankly I'm challenged to do it in just a few short bullets. But here I go. Hold on to your point of view when...
•You have fully listened and remained open to the ideas of others, and your point of view still makes the most sense
•The persuaded point of view goes against your core values, ethics or morals
•The losses in the persuaded point of view are far greater than the benefits
Holding on to our own opinion is important to foster the right moves for ourselves and our companies. We need to hear everybody's voice and be appropriate and conscious when choosing a direction.
