- Why using I-statements creates effective communication:
This video explains why using I-statements when we communicate will be more effective, particularly in situations where there may be a conflict or other relationship difficulty, whether at work or with a family member or someone else.
It looks at two main ways in which not using I-statements are ineffective and not supportive of the resolution of conflict - 1. That not using I-statements risks alienating others and 2. How not using I-statements can lead us to speak and act as if we are powerless in situations where we do have the capacity to create constructive change.
The considered, appropriate use of I-statements helps to reduce incivility in interactions and communication between people - something which is becoming more and more recognised as a significant obstacle to effective working relationships.

Alan Sharland has been a Mediator and Conflict Coach for over 20 years and in this video he explains, perhaps from a different angle to the usual discussion of I-statements, why they support more effective communication and help in responding to conflict more constructively and creatively.
Listen/watch through to the end, or take a break and pause the video at times to reflect more deeply than the video allows and even to take notes on your own use of I-statements, or on where you do not use them and are having some difficulties with your conversations.

Thank you for creating this video. The capacity to aid in creating constructive change through I-statements...I love it! This definitely gets the wheels in motion when thinking of better ways to explain ones own experience. Looking forward to more knowledge sharing.

Thank you thank you thank you! I am going to use this today to teach my clients--guys who struggle with mental health and addiction--how to use "I" statements.
Hey that's great Rasha, very glad you think it would be helpful for them. Would be great to hear their thoughts about it afterwards. Happy New Year!
@@CommunicationandConflict They really liked it! Because we're in Minnesota, I had to pause and explain what the underground and the council were. 😀 After we watched your video, they practiced changing some "you"statements into "I" statements. Thanks for the help with group, brother!
@@rashaski That's so fantastic to hear Rasha, really glad that they and you found it useful. Please let me know if any other topics or themes would be of interest for a video as I'm always open to creating others that fit people's communication and conflict resolution related interests.
Very good video. Appreciate your effort.
