Effective Communication Workshops

'Did you know that our bodies, via all of their five senses, take in approximately three million bits of information every minute? If that is a surprise to you, it should come as no surprise that we filter the information and process it differently in each individual. It is partly due to this huge amount of processed information that we are often lacking in our communication effectiveness.'

There is a tendency to assume that what we are communicating is easily understood. This is because we already understand what we are trying to communicate. As we have probably found out on a number of occasions, this is not always the case.

Influence of Technology

There is also the influence that technology has on our communication styles. There is less and less face-to-face communication and more and more reliance on e-mails as our preferred medium of communicating. Even the telephone is becoming increasingly less used, unless you are texting that is!

There are a number of techniques that we can adopt in order to keep pace with these developments and to help tailor communication and leadership workshops so that it is better understood by the recipients.

These include:

Understanding our own preferred effective communication style

Interpreting other people’s preferred style, both orally and written

Increasing our influencing skills

The good news is that we can all improve our communication. If we can become better understood, we will become better at negotiating and influencing to our own point of view. What company doesn’t want its employees to be in that position? This is a fundamental understanding of team building theory.
