Communication doesn t happen unless the listener gets the point.
Communications break down when the sender hasn t gotten on the wavelength of the receiver.
To ensure that what you send will be received, don t give presentations, give leadership talks instead. My experience has taught me that 95 percent of all communication in business and government is accomplished through the presentation. Presentations are intended to communicate information, but leadership talks inspire listeners to believe in you, follow you, and, most important of all, become leaders for your cause. If 95 percent of government communications were accomplished through leadership talks, executives would be far more effective in getting results. Here s how to prepare a leadership talk.
