Have you ever encountered a person that totally dominates the dialogue when you are supposed to be in a conversation? Usually what happens is the other people or the person that can’t get a word in will tend to tune that person out and become disinterested in anything that they are saying. Well, obviously the person monopolizing the conversation does not understand that communications is a collaborative effort. In all of my seminars and workshops, the standard operating procedure is to engage my audience. I allow and encourage constant dialogue between me and the audience. It is somewhat strange to the audience at first because most people are not accustomed to being able to verbally participate and are sometimes reluctant to do so. But I find that by communicating back and forth with the audience allows them to obtain a greater benefit from what’s being said. The next time you’re communicating with your employees or co-workers, allow your communication to be two-way and enjoy a greater sense of effective communications.
