Be more detailed. Everyone needs a different amount of details. Give the right amount of details at the right time.
1. Understand we are all different in how we communicate. Some employees are chit-chat people and some are down to business. Communicate differently to each employee. Treat them as individuals and not as a group.
2. Each employee will respond to different ways of communication.
3. Be Patient and positive.
Create a 50/50 Partnership. Involve the employees in the communication process. If the employee has ownership and is involved, they care. When the employee cares, they have passion.
1. Ask the question: How do I make the other people around me successful. This is the hardest part of effective communication. Most people come in to work and say, “What can everyone do for me today?” The dynamic shift is asking the question, “What can I do for the people around me to make them successful?” Ask the question. Answer the question. Act on the answer.
Stay in the Game
1. Anyone can quit. The only way to be successful is to stay in the game. If you stay in the game, you might have to learn something new; get out of your comfort zone, communicate differently; or try a new approach. If you quit, you are guaranteed failure. If you stay in the game, you will find success.
2. Create opportunity for people to communicate. Match the opportunity with positive support. When was the last time you asked your employees what they needed to be happy?
