Expresson 2. When you're lost in a conversation

  3. I didn't follow that. Could you go over it again?
  4. Please run that by me one more time.

 

Exercise : to redirect the conversation

 

  1. Interrupt politely by asking for permission
    -
    Excuse me, is now a good time to bring up X?
    - Do you mind if I just jump in quicklu?
    - Am I okay to pause you for a second?

  2. Check your understand
    - I'd love to see if we're both understanding one another.
    - Tell you what, let me see if we are on the same page.
    - I'm not sure thow this relates to our topic, can you explain the connection?

  3. Redirect the conversation back to track
    - So, let's get back to our topic.
    - Since today's agenda is [  ], let's stay focused on that and table other issue for later.
    - Let's refocus on our original goal.
