The key to gaining influence lies in our COMMUNICATION SKILLS – how you get the message across, how people perceive you, and how you carry yourself. The ability to speak clearly and objectively is even more crucial for those who are separated by distance and differentiated by working environments. Miscommunications cause lost of productivity, resources and time, leading to unnecessary tension and stress at the workplace.
Now that we know how important the skill is,
how do we enhance it?
