I Love To Talk...
Imagine enjoying interpersonal relationships and reducing hassles because you communicate better. Think what it would be like to resolve the communication issues you face each day? How would your life be different if thosecommunication problems just went away? Communication training can help you enjoy great relationships at home and at work by communicating better.
I work with individuals who are motivated to communicate well and break the patterns of the past. Communication training helps people identify the patterns of behavior that block the path to effective interactions. Communication training helps you see things in a different way and gives you an objective perspective. A coach helps you identify the behaviors that got you where you are and works with you to move in a different direction.
Think of communication training as a tool that helps you build up the skills that will help you interact better with people at every level. Once you acquire these skills, you will gain the ability to talk with anyone, resolve challenging issues, communicate confidently, avoid misunderstandings and enjoy life more at home and at work.
I work with people and organizations who want to change how they communicate but don't yet have the tools to achieve success. I've developed effective strategies so you can actually communicate in more effective ways. I work closely with you so you can develop the tools that will help you move past the communication obstacles of the past.
I help you strengthen your communication skills and create a plan for success. Feel free to contact me to find out how you can begin enjoying communicating with the people who are an important part of your life.

How to effectively Communicate
There are some basic things that can help us practice positive interpersonal communication skills in the workplace and avoid some of the ongoing conflict and misunderstandings that can reduce our productivity and morale. Effective communication is a key skill both for leaders and employees because it makes everything go more smoothly, from planning to execution. Think of the following ideas as you build good communication skills with your employees and co- workers.
Keep Your Audience in Mind
Don’t talk above people or use a lot of obscure jargon.
Body Language is Important
Since 90% or more of communication is non- verbal make sure that your tone of voice is calm and kind. Be mindful of how you look and whether your expressions make you an inviting conversation partner.
You Don’t Have to Shout
Really. Anger and shouting should best be left for a talk with your therapist. People react more favorable if you talk to them nicely.
Listen More Than You Talk
Try asking open- ended questions and listening to the answers to gather information.
You Don’t Have to Run the Show
Let other people talk and tell you what’s going on.
Strive for Two- Way Communication
This is the kind of communication based on a natural give and take where people listen and talk.
Slow Down
You don’t have to race through everything or cover every single point in thirty seconds. Relax and talk about one thing at a time.
Share Information
People feel important and valued when they talk with you and have the same information you do.
Try these ideas and see what they do for the communication in your workplace. You might be surprised what some basic changes can do for your bottom line and the atmosphere in your workplace
Happy Talking!
