Common communication mistakes

Common communication mistakes

  • Lack of attention to tone. No matter what the circumstances, learn to pay attention to tone. Before you speak, pause and take a breath.
  • One-size-fits-all communication. Different people have different needs and expectations.
  • Avoiding the difficult conversation.  Everybody faces conflict.Provide clear and actionable feedback, even when it is difficult for you.
  • Reacting instead of responding.  Before reacting with anger and frustration, pause to reflect.Then respond in stead of react.
  • Indulging in gossip. Leave no place for gossip if you want to be trusted and esteemed as a communicator.
  • Speaking more and listening less. When you listen more than you speak, you open yourself up to learning and empathy.
  • Thinking you are being understood. Take the time to check that people have understood your message.
