Overview
If you need to have a difficult conversation with someone, today is the day to get some alone time with them and broach that touchy subject. But before you call them up and jump right into it, consider creating a softer, more gentle environment -- one that is much less confrontational. Why not invite them over for a quiet dinner or luncheon? Good food and a relaxing atmosphere will create a perfect environment for open communication. They won't feel put on the spot. They'll feel cared for.
