improve your communication skills

When it comes to communication , we all tend to think that we are pretty good at it. The truth is that even those of us who are good communicators are not as good as we think. This overestimation of our communication skills is magnified when we interact with the people with whom we spend the most time.<br><br>Researchers at the University of Chicago School of Business put this theory to the test, and what they discovered is surprising. In the study, the researchers paired the subjects with people they knew well and then again with people they had never met. The researchers found that people who knew each other well did not understand each other better than those they had just met. Worse still, participants frequently overestimated their communication skills, and this was more pronounced with people they knew well.

  2. The tricks to improve your workplace communication skills It was a tiring day at work. I was sitting (well, slumping) at a desk, tip-tapping away at an email, bemoaning my misfortune. “How am I involved in call, upon meeting, upon chat, upon thread, and yet still need to repeat all of my efforts and re-write the same information in a email?!” I quickly bullet-pointed the summary items and hit ‘send’, frustrated. This had become the reality of my interactions. I was failing because of ineffective communication skills and a misaligned mindset. I didn’t recognise the power behind my day-to-day actions, and I didn’t realise how I could leverage the things I bemoaned to actually make my life better. visit to know more

  3. 1 As Franklin Covey would say, ‘Begin with the end in mind’ A fundamental objective of all conversations is to reaffirm the relationship and the value you bring to it. Through redefining our day-to-day success, we remember that the goal of most communication is to solve problems; this is, after all, why organisations exist in the first place. The purpose of most of my emails, I realised, wasn’t necessarily to incite more replies, but to influence those copied in to take action – and action would get me the results I was aiming for all along.

  5. There are rarely net neutral human exchanges – not in the line for coffee, not in an email, and definitely not in the boardroom. As we rush through our days, trying to get our inbox to single digits, it seems like our only option is to hustle endlessly to make the numbers. Our lives are filled with goal-driven conversations – but we often complicate these by misidentifying the goal and, consequently, wasting important opportunities to communicate well.
