Here I will read the second page of Niet thuis. Listen carefully because some things are repeated in the story. 

The room is not big, 3 by 4 meters.  But Lisa has her own bathroom, with toilet.  And a balcony.  And that is special for a student in Amsterdam.  Lisa puts her backpack on a chair and takes off her coat.  So first make tea.  She walks to the large kitchen at the end of the hall.  The kitchen is for all students together.  And that's not so great.  The kitchen is always dirty and messy.  Very dirty and very messy.  Lisa takes the kettle and puts water in the device.  Then she wants to go back to her room.  But the young man and woman are standing at the kitchen door.  "Excuse me," says the woman.  Dan is not home.  Maybe he went grocery shopping.  Can we wait here for a while?'  "Of course," says Lisa.  Would you like a cup of tea?'  The woman nods.  "gladly," she says

毎日飲むお茶

私が日常的に飲んでいるのは、紅茶でもコーヒーでもなく、ほうじ茶だ。ほうじ茶とは緑茶の茶葉（ちゃば）を焙（ほう）じて淹（い）れるお茶である。こだわりはなく、スーパーで買うお徳用（とくよう）のパックで十分満足できる。麦茶（むぎちゃ）やウーロン茶も美味しいと思うけど、ほうじ茶の独特の香（こう）ばしさと味わいが一番好き。

Many leaders struggle to strike the balance between friendliness and firmness. One client, let's call her Sarah, excelled in collaboration but found her team didn't take her directives seriously. Her challenge? Assertive communication.

Over 12 weeks, we embarked on a journey to transform Sarah's communication style. Our bi-weekly coaching sessions (Mondays for planning, Fridays for review) provided structure and accountability. Here's how we achieved results:

Unveiling the Power of "I" Statements:  Instead of accusatory "you" statements ("You always miss deadlines!"), we practiced "I" statements ("I feel frustrated when deadlines are missed"). This shifted the focus to the impact on Sarah and the team, fostering collaboration.

Body Language Bootcamp:  Nonverbal cues speak volumes. We practiced confident posture, strong eye contact, and clear gestures. Standing tall while giving instructions and mirroring team members' positive body language fostered a sense of mutual respect.

The Art of the Pause:  Sarah often rushed through instructions, leaving room for confusion. We mastered the power of the pause. Strategic pauses after key points allowed information to sink in and empowered team members to ask clarifying questions.

Innovation in Role-Playing:  Traditional role-playing can feel awkward. We gamified the process, creating scenarios based on Sarah's real-life situations. This playful approach allowed Sarah to experiment with assertive language in a safe space, boosting her confidence.

Celebrating Small Wins:  Progress wasn't always linear. We celebrated even minor victories, like delivering a firm but respectful instruction. Acknowledging her achievements fueled Sarah's motivation and helped her stay on track.

The Result? Measurable Change: Within three months, Sarah's communication transformed. Team meetings became more focused, deadlines were met consistently, and her leadership presence flourished.
