WAIT - Before You Go . . .
You just downloaded The Hard Conversation Prep Checklist.
That checklist will help you think through what needs to be said.
But when the meeting starts…
Do you know the first sentence you’ll use?
Most newly promoted technical managers don’t struggle with identifying the issue.
They struggle with the wording.
The opening line.
The clear framing.
The steady response when someone gets defensive.
The way to close without softening the message.
That’s where conversations succeed—or spiral.
Before you leave this page, there’s a practical companion to the checklist you just downloaded.
The Hard Conversations Starter Script Pack
Clear, practical language for high-pressure leadership moments.
Inside, you’ll get 20+ ready-to-use scripts to help you:
-
Open without over-apologizing
-
Name performance gaps clearly
-
Respond to defensiveness without backing down
-
Set expectations without sounding harsh
-
Document follow-up the right way
These aren’t word-for-word speeches.
They’re structured starting points designed for technical managers who want precision—not platitudes.
Because in hard conversations, structure beats charisma.
Why This Matters
If just one script helps you:
-
Prevent a missed deadline
-
Address a performance issue earlier
-
Avoid a frustrating escalation
-
Or protect a working relationship
This pays for itself immediately.

"I created this conversation starter script pack because I wish I’d had something like it when I was a new manager and was avoiding conversations I didn’t know how to handle yet."
