It's for you if
- you lead people and someone on your team is thinking of leaving or about to change roles;
- there is a restructuring, a departure or an internal move and you want to talk without making it worse;
- you find it hard to know where your role ends, because you evaluate too.
It isn't what you're looking for if
- you need legal or HR advice;
- you're looking for therapy, or for someone to fix it for the other person;
- you want a technique to hold someone back.

Questions about this guide
Is it legal or HR advice?
No. It isn't therapy either, and it doesn't replace a professional when one is needed. The guide tells you when to suggest professional help.
Can I print the sheets and bring them to a conversation?
Yes, that's what they are for. The guide file itself is personal.
There is a Spanish version
