“Effective Conversations” Unleashed
We all wish to start and end a day with Conversations that enable a favorable outcome. Conversations happen through various communication channels with our customers, colleagues, leaders, friends, and families.
Effective Conversations can happen by sporting a mindset filled with purpose. The crux to modeling a purposeful attitude is to learn and train or give our time to a person to influence a favorable outcome during our interaction (through conversations).
Every human being to survive has a need and a want trigged by a desire. Similarly, any conversation, irrespective of the communication channels, will have an underlying trigger, either a need or a want, that would have initiated it.
Identifying the need or want from the conversation and consciously fulfilling those will lead to an “Effective Conversation.” Sometimes the outcome may not be a favorable one by the end of it. However, any conversational exchange enabling or leading to a good result will also be effective.
To summarize, the below two-step processes for an Effective conversation.
a) unearth the need or want in all your conversations
b) improve any quality of interaction with your colleagues/peers, friends/family, and clients/customer every day by learning and improving from each conversation
Every day presents a new opportunity in all aspects; here is an excellent opportunity to improve a conversation. After all, walking a path of meaningful purpose-driven conversation will lead to self-satisfaction and contentment.
Can we pledge to make a conscious effort and improve upon every conversation time and again?
