HOW LEADERS COMMUNICATE SO PEOPLE LISTEN
I have a friend who has an all-hands sales meeting every Tuesday at 9am PST for their entire west coast sales team. He shared that for the entire 60 minutes, their regional manager talked, and talked, and talked. Very little dialogue. At the end of the zoom meeting, my friend said “I have a hard time remembering what he just said”.
What kind of communicators would you like to listen to?
Who holds your attention?
What qualities do you admire the most in the way they communicate?
How do leaders communicate so people listen?
Get to the heart of the matter. Don’t complicate the way you communicate. And please– don’t create detailed slide decks that take away from your core message. Less is more.
Here’s to developing your communication!
