The Fundamental Difference Between Debate and Dialogue

Debate: We treat our views as truths that ought to be accepted.

Dialogue: We treat our views as hypotheses that ought to be tested.

Basic Rules for Dialogue

Be open and suspend judgment. Don’t disparage others points of view.

Keep dialogue and decision making separate; dialogue precedes decision making, negotiations, and action.

Treat all participants as peers.

Listen with empathy. Acknowledge you have heard others and that you care.

Look for common ground. Identify areas where you agree.

Search for and disclose hidden assumptions—especially in yourself.
