Listen To Your Body
As reaction to panic or stress the body pumps adrenaline, making you breath faster and certain parts of the body feel tight, that makes us prone to often incorrect snap judgments. When having that kind of response, close your eyes, take a few breaths, and take some time to consider your next action.
That buys you time to physically calm down enough to make a more considered choice.

Speak To A Group As Individuals
While speaking to groups, a leader tends to be formal, and is distracted by the large crowd, failing to create a deep level of intimacy.
The trick to effective communication is to deliver the message as if one is talking to an individual. This makes the speech emotionally genuine, with each listener able to grasp the energy and attention, as they would if it was a one-on-one communication.

Why successful people are great listeners
Being A Great Listener
- Focus on what’s being said instead of how it affects you or what you want to say.
- Put away your phone. It’s rude and multitasking takes away from comprehension.

Tips to help create an innovative culture
- Engage and empower the entire team. Everyone in your organization should feel empowered to unleash his or her entrepreneurial spirit.
- Suspend judgment. Identify “the good” in the ideas instead.
- “Fail big, but fail soon.” Team members must also know that they have permission to fail. Sometimes you must move quickly and you can’t always play it safe.
- Set a good example. Take time to connect, mentor and develop your team members. Inspire them to create, look for new approaches and think outside the box.
- Pay attention to the details. Designate specific goals, projects, times and expectations. These types of details ensure the innovation process doesn’t turn into a time suck.
- Don’t forget about the physical environment. The physical environment people are in can influence how they feel, think and interact and can impact the quality and quantity in the innovation process.
