From Smartbrief on Leadership
Great leaders who want to bring their organization to a new level need strong communication skills: whether it is one on one verbally or group in a town hall meeting/general meeting. So what are needed?
l. Public speaking skills - attending a toastmaster club, joining the Jaycees, or enrolling in public speaking can help strengthen communication skills. I just learned that taking this some 20 years back at a cost of only P700.00 was a good invesment (Dale Carnegie at ETIOP will set you back by P14,000) My classmates then were a Commodore at Phil Navy, ensigns at Phil Navy. comptroller and accountant at Philippine Plaza (now Sofitel)
2. Clear and concise messages. Dale Carnegie speeches were just 2 minutes. And just tell them techniques: tell them what you told them, explain what you told them, and summarize what you told them. You are forced to be concise, brief, and direct to the point
3. Communication plan - As in everything you must have plan: when who what do you need to tell. What is the medium? Are there events with the communication blitz?
People skills in communication:
l. Rapport - do you connect with your listeners?
2. Listen -
3. Ask for feedback
