Baldoni recommends:
- Be Explicit through Specific Examples - Don't sugar-coat the news or use generalities. Let your employees know exactly how the company is being impacted.
- Tell the Story through Narrative and Graphs - "Show and Tell" is highly effective. People will remember and repeat a short story with a clear plot.
- Keep your Perspective through Humor - Recognize that you can be serious without being deadly.
- Connect through Emotion - Long after people forget what you said, they'll remember how you made them feel.
