Rise and Thrive. Wonderful Wednesday to you all. This week we are discussing effective communication. Once you have mastered the ability to actively listen to the other party, it would then be beneficial to work on comprehension of what was heard. When speaking you want to be clear and conscience. When listening it is important to ask clarifying questions if you do not understand, never assume. Assuming can lead to a negative communication interaction. I think about what I learned in the medical field, “Ask me questions, and teach back”. Once you have heard the message ask questions and reinform in your own words to ensure proper comprehension and understanding. With true communication comes comprehension.
