Reflection

Effective communication is more than just words — it's the art of connecting with our teams, our organizations, our families, our community. Many of us know that it’s not just what we say, it’s how we say it. Studies even suggest that 85% of communication is nonverbal.

The most impactful leaders understand that effective communication is about inspiring, guiding, and sharing ideas. It requires actively listening to others, fostering collaboration, and adapting communication styles to different audiences or situations.

I've found two questions helpful as I navigate the nuances of communication:

What do I want people to know?
What do I want people to do?

Communication isn't just a good tool — it's the cornerstone of great leadership and connection to others.
