Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P. Director of Planning and Development Town of Newcastle Date of Publication: February 15, 1989 representatives but with a message for all who hold office office in any organization. His ideas could be pigeon holed as good public relations. The first and possibly most important important rule is "Be a good listener". Listen to your party party with interest and attention, attention, absorbing their input rather than as an unnecessary unnecessary interruption of your own personal opinion. This requires disciplining oneself. No. 2 Was "developing the art of asking" skillful questions - to bring out the main point of the conversation conversation rather than have it smothered in excess verbosity. verbosity. No. 3 When being subjected subjected to a lengthy and apparently apparently endless barrage of "facts", ask the person involved involved when they have finished finished their presentation without interruption, to summarize it into 3 points in a written form. This usually usually diffuses the previous oral barrage. No. 4 When making a point, make certain you are in possession of the facts. One loses credibility when making decision on faulty facts. Mr. Rusty Russel quoted the Mama whale to Baby whale as saying - "You • only get harpooned when you get up to spout." No 5. Never ever under any provocation call anyone a liar. Merely-say that you. can't agree with his/her interpretation interpretation of the facts and drop it there. No. 6 If you have made a statement which you found out later to be wrong, at the next occasion apologize for your mistake and explain that you based you comments comments on information that proved to be erroneous. Demonstrate that you value the truth! Rusty said to always tell the truth even if you have to "lie a little" to do so. 7th and concluding comment comment and one in our opinion which is very significant. Don't always expect to get your own way. Be prepared to compromise. Very few problems are absolutely black or white. Most are solved by picking a middle ground which pleases neither neither side but also doesn't completely alienate anyone. Remember most Boards of Directors or Councils are composed of individuals from diverse backgrounds with various opinions which must be applied to solving a multiplicity of complex problems! problems! Will leave you with that mouthful to regurgitate upon. p -X Big Brothers' annual fundraiser, the Bowl for Millions, Millions, was a "striking" success on February 11.
