We can NOT underestimate the impact of the spoken word. The age old adage “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” does NOT hold true. In fact, the emotional wounds caused by a carelessly or recklessly spoken word can cause irreparable damage to any sort of relationship. People who have more intimate relations with us (relatives, best friends, spouses) may not judge us on the spot because the ill timed word is balanced against the good experiences that a long relationship brings. But in the office, it is an entirely different matter.
We will find that in the work place “listening” is necessary so we can communicate accurately and effectively. Effective Communication is not only what we say to another, it IS also about what we hear another person saying to us. It goes without saying that if we don’t listen, we cannot communicate effectively. And when we don’t communicate effectively, we will find ourselves struggling in our careers, as well as relationships at work and outside of work. So if you find that you are always at a loss for words, the good news is – Communication Skills are a learned behavior. They are something we can improve through learning!
Languages Internationale answers the “what”, “why” and “how” of communications! Most of us talk without being clear on the purpose or intention of our message. We don’t even analyze WHO we are talking to. And if we do it wrong we risk offending, embarrassing and hurting the receivers of our message. We will be more diplomatic communicators if we know:
