Method of Winning Any Argument

Winning an argument is not about dominating others but achieving mission outcomes. In any operational debrief or negotiation, words can shift alliances and save lives. This piece outlines how to define your objective, control the emotional climate, and use evidence to steer discussions in your favor. It also covers listening as an offensive tool and closing arguments with authority.

Arguments are battles of influence not ego. Keep your goal in focus, not your pride. The conversation ends when you secure agreement, not when the other person yields in frustration.
