あらすじ・解説
In this episode of Tom’s Life Lab, we dive into the OI-4C framework, a simple and structured way to communicate your needs with clarity and confidence—without unnecessary emotion or assumptions.
Key Takeaways:
✅ OI-4C Framework – A step-by-step approach to asking for what you need:
Observation – state the facts neutrally.
Impact – explain how the situation affects you.
Curious – open a dialogue instead of making demands. Change – suggest an action to improve things. Continue – reinforce what’s working well. Challenge – encourage the other person to step up.
✅ Real-Life Examples – learn how to:
Ask for help when you’re overwhelmed with work and set boundaries when someone interrupts you in meetings.
✅ Why This Works: removes emotion and assumption, making your request clearer. Encourages dialogue instead of just pointing out problems. Helps you feel more confident when speaking up.
