Words That Work

One phrase can shut someone down—

Another can open the door:

Small shifts in what we say can
change the tone of any conversation.

At work, even simple phrases can make you
more collaborative, thoughtful, and clear.

What happens when we use
the wrong words at work?

🚫 Work feels harder than it should
🚫 Small issues become big ones
🚫 Silence replaces honesty
🚫 Stress spreads quietly
🚫 Problems get ignored
🚫 People shut down
🚫 Ideas go unsaid
🚫 Clarity gets lost
🚫 Morale takes a hit
🚫 Trust breaks down
🚫 Decisions get delayed
🚫 Good employees leave
🚫 Feedback turns into blame
🚫 Collaboration turns into conflict
🚫 Teams stop talking—and start guessing
