Clarence Thomas was credibly accused by Anita Hill of sexual harassment. And there was a second alleged victim, Sukari Hardnett, who was not allowed to testify. Clarence is no hero. His victims are no bullies. Why do so many Republicans lift up men who sexually harass women??

I believed Anita Hill then, and I believe her now. And I believe Sukari Hardnett, too. https://t.co/hvUon9IrLz
I believe Moira Smith. https://t.co/xz4FVsry2p
And Christine Blasey Ford ... https://t.co/So2dxr8WzJ
And now, two out of the six Republicans on the Supreme Court -- that's 1/3 -- have been credibly accused of sexual misconduct. Not to mention the venal former president/GOP cult leader who faces some 2-dozen accusations. Are these your kings, Republicans? https://t.co/MU4PkrHuya
Also why aren't the Q-anon cult concerned about the (alleged) teen sexual exploitation of Trump's little buddy and apparently, Republicans' future presidential nominee Matt Gaetz? What gives?? Isn't your whole shtick about pedos running the government??? https://t.co/wfGlGoueqo
And what about this??? https://t.co/b3T0KLJMup
It's such a strange, strange political party...

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”

Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?

A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:


2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to

- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal

3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:

Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.

Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.

4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?

To get clarity.

You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.

It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.

5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”

Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
