  guys and gals... u know sometimes the tone of yr approach is very impt... if yr tone is not gd... maybe tension will rise...
  
  u get what i mean that sometimes if yr tone is okie... then wun quarrel... so tone may lead to complications

  it is the way u use, subtly, not too much, not too little.
  
  Also, your body language is important. But that, I do not know how to describe it

  Try speaking in a high pitched voice to your boss sincerely and see if you can last..!!
  
  The key word here is sincerity. Think of how to be sincere, not tone changing!
  
  Or buy a vocoder.

  practice makes perfect
  
  if u do it many many times, u will improve
  
  if no have time, practice at home in front of mirror or when u r taking a dump.
  
  rehearse and go over the possible 'conversations' out loud
