Additionally, honoring and respecting people during difficult conversations promotes empathy and compassion. Recognizing the inherent worth and dignity of each individual involved encourages a deeper appreciation for their experiences, values, and emotions. This empathy enables participants to approach the conversation with greater sensitivity and consideration, fostering a collaborative atmosphere that seeks common ground and mutual understanding.
