This week, we are talking about Yes, And! There have been a lot of NO’s or YEAH, BUT’s over the past couple of years, so we wanted to talk about a slight SHIFT in the language that we use to open ourselves up to new ideas and possibilities. In other words, we need more YES, AND in our lives, both personally and professionally, as we slowly emerge from COVID restrictions.
So where does Yes, And come from? It’s actually taken from improv techniques and also used in Link Crew. The basic premise is to continue to move the story forward, providing total support for all of your team members and valuing all of the voices at the table. By using AND instead of BUT, you are signifying a willingness to problem solve and/or grow and add to ideas versus shutting down the conversation.
We invite you to give it a try! Next time you find yourself saying YEAH, BUT why not try on YES, AND instead?
