Ok, So... What do I SAY?

Gregg Oliver

Understanding the behavior of a good communicator is important - knowing how to listen, to be interested in what the other person has to say, and to be open to changing your mind if their perspective warrants it. At one point or another, though, you are going to have to SAY something and for most of us this is where the problem starts. We hear them say something that we disagree with and we don't address it right away, or they are confusing us or are confused themselves, or they are taking too much time in getting to the point. Then WE say something and that's when all the trouble starts and we remember THAT'S why we quit speaking up a long time ago - it isn't worth it.

But really we know that things don't get better unless we do something and usually the thing we need to do starts with a conversation. So, what do you SAY to make things go a better?

In this hour, Gregg Oliver will lead you through some of the same techniques he teaches to San Diego business leaders in his popular "High Performance Communication" classes that make face-to-face conversations productive, meaningful, and gratifying. Face-to-Face conversation is a skill that is learned and you won't get better at it unless you know what works and do it.
