According to Business Know-How Newsletter, you can avoid a failure to communicate in the workplace. Just like location, location, location is important in real estate, communications, communications, effective communications is as important in business. Mastering the art of effective communication is a really, really big pet peeve of mine! Here’s why. Having good communication skills is nothing more than having good manners. Remember when your mom would communicate with you with her non verbal communications (eyes and mouth) when you were out to dinner in a fancy restaurant with Dad’s boss and his family and you were about to use the wrong fork at the wrong time—ugh? Mom was sure to seat you across from her for this very reason. You just needed a little more practice. (I’m yelling!!!!) Well, it’s the same with improving your communication skills—work a little harder and practice. You don’t have to have a degree or be a great orator; simply apply some common sense and good manners.
