Leaders know that communication is critical to effective leadership. Words, voice, and non-verbal language all impact communication in either a positive or negative manner.
A leader who is not willing to take a look as his or her communication ability or skill may suffer. One of the teaching points I use in my leadership seminars is this:
“People that I see as lost or in a state of confusion may be responding to my communication. In fact, they may be attempting to accomplish what I have asked of them. The reality may be that I communicated my desires poorly.”
My last 3 blog posts have been focused on communication. Below is a simple recap of those posts:
What I say matters!
How I say it matters!
When I say it matters!
Where I say it matters!
The Monday challenge…
Repetition is the engine of memory.
Repetition is the engine of memory.
Repetition is the engine of memory.
Get it?
Repeat the four points above daily.
I invite you to simply repeat the 4 points above every morning before you communicate with another person.
I further invite you to repeat each of the points prior to the start of any meetings you may have or at the start of any conversations you may have that might be challenging.
Happy Monday!
