doing a variety of communication methods that benefit both internal
and external customers. Communication is not just about how you talk and
listen. It's about making connections with people. It's about being cooperative
and trusted...someone people can count on...someone they respect and like.
People who talk to each other talk less about each other. A common theme
throughout this class, is to remember that no matter how correct one's
choice of words, the feeling behind those words--or tone of voice--counts
most! Some of the methods explored are: addressing attitudes that support
and undermine customer communication, preferences for receiving and processing
information, principles that engage positive communication, selecting
words to have the desired impact, plus giving and receiving feedback.
All of these communication tools and techniques can be used in any situation
and any relationship.
