It usually takes more than three weeks to prepare a good impromptu speech. – Mark Twain We live by networking. Talk to each other – one day you’ll be working together.

a recent job ad: You will bring to the position…. proven leadership skills, a strong commitment to customer service, a willingness & ability to seek out & incorporate new methods, openness to change, excellent communication skills, patience, tact, and a sense of humour.

S : T, I would like to come to YEG for a joint 2-day workshop next month. R : I’m only available the second day. If you still want to come to YEG, please feel free. S : I do not necessarily “want” to come to YEG. I thought it would be more efficient and effective to meet face to face to plan the workshop. I will now leave it up to you to decide how, when and where.

Leadership and Communication In the end, it is all about people. - Karin Wittenborg A desk is a poor place to see the world from. Only relatively recently did I learn that change is more about people than it is about organization charts & process analyses…. To effect lasting change, I must cultivate, mentor, listen, communicate, bring together, encourage, & let go. - Chris Ferguson The difference between reacting and responding is about ten seconds. Just as it takes two to tango, it takes two to miscommunicate. But only one to lay blame.

some stats on workplace communication: - 60% of management problems due to faulty com’n - 20% of downward com’n from boss is accurately received hours per week spent by employees in meetings - 69% feel meetings are not productive - 2 out of 5 workdays rated unproductive by most staff - managers spend up to 95% of time in communication - most is verbal, on phone, & in meetings (Mintzberg) - managers spend over 60% of working day listening - 57% of corporate communication professionals rate senior leaders as having poor verbal communication skills - 70% rate them as having poor listening, dialogue, & team- building skills ; 39% do not think their executive team believes internal communication is important to business
