What is Stonewalling?
- dismissing your concerns or refusing to discuss an issue
- dismissing your ideas and perspectives like they are invalid, stupid, unreasonable, or boring
- avoiding discussing or problem-solving issues
- busying themselves while you're trying to talk to them
- avoiding eye contact, staring past you, or at their phone, watch, or TV
- acts as if you're unimportant & have nothing of value to say
- ignoring you when you speak
- eye rolling
People who avoid difficult, undesirable, or uncomfortable discussions, might Stonewall
W/o clear & open communication, nothing can get addressed as it needs to be
We can't Stonewall & solve issues
If you're #stonewalling you don't want to solve or address the issue, you want the issue to continue
