"Isnt the weather dreadful? Isnt it shocking? God it's a beautiful day" How many times have we heard and responded to statements like this? Well don't knock it as nine-tenths of people would not be able to start a conversation if the weather didn't change once in a while. Communication skills trainers define communication as the exchange of ideas and information through speech, writing and behaviour.
Trainers in communication skills courses state that communication is an art in which you try to make your ideas understood because we all approach communication from our own styles and flexibility.
A useful tool that is used cosistently on communication skills courses is the communication quadrant. By using this you can figure out which communicater type you are, you can then learn how to communicate effectively to achieve your goals. For example;
- If you are a concrete sequential communicator you are a Mr. or Mrs. Fix It. You prefer to start from the start and be logically organised. You have a tendency to think methodically however you do not adapt easily.
- If you are an abstract sequential communicator you are Mr. or Mrs Utalitarian. You prefer a logical imoersonal analysis, its importatnt for you to have sound theory however you are less concerned with people as you prefer to just get to the point.
- If you are a ..............communicator you are Mr. or Mrs. Free Thinker. You tend to rely on your own feelings for opinions, you find it easy to see from anothers point of view and you are a great brainstormer.
- If you are a concrete random thinker you are Mr. or Mrs. Explorer. You use your intuition based on your own experiences, you will make desicsions based on finding solutions and you thrive on change.
Communication skills trainers point out that it is your goal to present informaion in a way that is preferred and easily understood for each of these different styles and also allows you to stay on the same wave lenghth.
This quadrant is a usefull tool to use on a communication skills training course as communication is an inclination for action so as an employee it is important to match and adapt to the various communication styles in order to achieve your goal.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
