🎙️ EP 7 — Guiding the Narrative: Setting the Frame
🖼️ Facts alone don’t move people—frames do. In this episode of Mind as Strategy, we unlock the force multiplier that makes every argument, pitch, or update easier to win: framing. You’ll see how Franklin D. Roosevelt calmed a nation in the middle of a bank panic with one simple reframe—and how you can use the same tool to guide meetings, negotiations, and even crisis threads on Slack.
You’ll learn:
🎯 What a frame is—and how it silently defines roles, stakes, and next steps.
🛠️ The FRAME IT model: Focus, Roles, Agenda, Metrics, Evidence, Invitation, Timeline.
💡 Language flips that defuse tension (“design choice” instead of “problem”).
📊 Real-world playbooks for product reviews, hiring syncs, board updates, and scope creep.
🛡️ Red flags that turn framing into manipulation—and how to keep your influence ethical.
✨ By the end, you’ll know how to set the rails your facts ride on, so decisions move forward with less resistance and more clarity.
