Prompt
Help me anticipate how the other person might respond in this workplace conversation. I will provide the situation, my intended talking points and what I know about the context. Do not claim to know what the person will think or say. Instead, give me a small set of plausible response patterns, for example: - they agree; - they disagree with the facts; - they agree with the facts but disagree with the impact; - they become defensive; - they raise information I did not know; - they ask for time; - they propose a different solution. For each plausible response: 1. Explain what I should listen for. 2. Suggest a calm question I could ask next. 3. Show what I should avoid saying if it would escalate or close down the discussion. Prioritise curiosity and clarity over "winning" the conversation. Situation and talking points: [PASTE] Relevant context: [OPTIONAL]
