Your Secret Superpower: Silence
- Many CEOs and entrepreneurs know that being comfortable with uncertainty and awkward silence can be a superpower.
- Candidates negotiating for their salary can use this superpower of being silent (and giving out no non-verbal information too) when the initial job offer is doled out to them, as the starting salary initially offered is rarely the higher bracket.
- If one is able to manage the discomfort with ease, silence can be used to great effect without being confrontational.
