“Manipulators love to explain why solutions won’t work,” according to Dan Rockwell for Leadership Freak. An example of his advice:
“Tip #1: Stop offering suggestions after the second off-handed rejection of advice. Instead ask, ‘What would you like to do?’ (And stop talking.)”
In Tip #4, he advised, “Manipulators fabricate evil motives. It’s amazing how much insight a manipulator has into the secret thoughts of someone that offended them.”
