看懂情緒，好好回應， 不是要討好誰，而是讓關係更圓滿 話一出口，原本熱絡的氣氛瞬間冰凍； 不過是平常的討論，說著說著怎麼就吵起來…… 「說錯話」常常讓溝通擦槍走火，令人當場發窘、事後懊惱。 提案不過，生意跑掉事小， 重要的是你的回應，決定了別人對你的看法，影響往往是一輩子…… 【說錯話、談不下去，通常是因為期待沒被承接，或是情緒被否定。】 我們說的每一句話都會牽動某個情緒狀態，但我們常常沒有察覺，遑論表達， 但身體很誠實，臉部會有相對應的變化， 如果能夠看懂表情，辨識出對方的感受， 就能夠得到較多的社交訊息，做出恰如其分的反應， 讓別人願意配合你，進一步贏得對方的信賴，並建立核心影響力。 【回應≠回話，創造「好回應」，請先放下標準答案。】 真實的互動中，光靠話術很難行得通：「哪一句話不能說」、「哪一句話一定要這樣接」…… 因為通常一段互動會出現說錯話、談不下去的狀況， 大多是因為某一方的期待沒被承接，或是情緒受到否定， 回應時，要先處理對方的「期待」或「情緒」， 能夠精準、恰如其分的回應，才能贏得對方真正的尊重與信任。 【創造好回應，從「看懂情緒」開始。】 讓對方喜歡你，並不是做一個應聲蟲，對方說什麼都好， 你還是可以有自己的看法和喜惡，但你的說法得讓對方「聽得進去」並覺得「舒服」， 你真正想說的話，才能取得通行證，才不會因為一時情緒的干擾，自動被屏蔽或消音。 情緒就像是大腦的守門員，要讓對方感覺安全沒有威脅性，才能得到對方的合作， 進而爭取到對方的耳朵，聽你往下說。 【解析七大情緒，教你輕鬆讀懂他人的表情，培養人際回應力。】 ．「快樂」得到深化 ．「驚訝」獲得澄清 ．「輕蔑」能夠面對 ．「厭惡」學會轉化 ．「憤怒」能被稀釋 ．「恐懼」能夠放慢 ．「悲傷」得到陪伴 於是： 正面的情緒能夠形成美好的循環； 挑戰的情緒成為贏得尊重的跳板； 沈重的情緒能夠得到完美的落地。 【只要好好回應情緒，溝通就會很容易。】 回應是「response」， 而能力是「ability」， 合起來就是「responsibility」。 一個有「回應力」的人，才稱得上是「負責任」， 一個人的命運，正是他回應力的總和。 本書幫助那些很害怕自己犯錯、不願意開口的人，知道只要避過哪些地雷，便能自在地與人交流。更重要的是，引導一些心直口快的人，在做回應時，多增加哪些潤滑，所說的話會更圓潤、不刺耳。 ◎
