The Art of Effective Communication
Показать описание
Improving communication skills isn’t that hard but it definitely takes time and some dedication. Especially if you are not that good at it. Observe the following points which may skyrocket your communication skills.
Develop Empathy & Get Out Of Your Head: This means being able to put yourself in the other person’s shoes. To be able to see them as they are. To care about how things are for them as they would think for themselves. What this has to do with communication? A lot. By doing this you will be able to understand the other person better. This will enable you to communicate & respond to them in a controlled and calibrated manner. This way you can easily influence and inspire the one you’re talking to.
Be Curious & Ask Questions: No I’m not saying that you bombard the other person with questions. But just being curious will do the thing naturally.
Add Value To The Conversations: A conversation is an exchange of information and emotions. Both can be considered as value. When you provide value in the conversation (either through giving information and/or inspiring good emotions), people will deem you as a valuable person and you will be able to influence them positively. Human beings experience thousands of emotions and a lot of them are positive emotions. Learn to effectively inspire these emotions and you have mastered the skill.
First Listen Effectively, Then Speak Effectively: Always remember that listening comes first! You should focus on what the other person has to say, only then can you effectively speak and add value. If you speak first, you words will never be that targeted and effective. What is even worst is speaking way more than is necessary in the beginning.
Keep it Simple: Be concise and to the point. It takes energy to listen to someone and absorb their words. You don’t want the other person to feel drained. Keep it as short and understandable as you can. Avoid using complicated words to boost your ego. You can do that by somewhat poeticizing your sentences.
Smile and Validate: Let the other person know that you understand them by nodding and smiling. Take a point from what they say and ask a question on it. This way they will feel that they have been understood and validated.
