The Cowboy Method: Forcing Concensus

Today I would like to share with you how you can force a person(s) to agree to almost to anything you want them to do.

  1. Book a meeting room
  2. 3 hours before the meeting starts, go and turn up the aircon to the max.
  3. Order drinks. A lot of drinks. And snacks.
  4. When you turn up for the meeting, make sure you’re dressed warm.
  5. Keep the person chugging drinks and snacks.
  6. Beat around the bush for 30 mins.
  7. By the 31st min, the person should having aching bowels and be freezing.
  8. Now spring the trap and demand he/she agree to what you want
  9. Refuse to adjourn the meeting unless they agree. Keep them from going to the bathroom as well.

And FYI, yes - I do this all the time.
