Bad News Loudly, Good News Quietly: Asymmetric Communication

Atom · refreshed Search related

A leadership communication principle attributed to Elon Musk inverts the natural human tendency to bury bad news and amplify good news.

Good news, by contrast, is welcomed and remembered, so it needs only to be said once, quietly.
