Effective Communication

Communication is the make or break of any relationship - whether work or personal. Most, if not all, problems can be avoided if only we speak to each other and communicate what we need, feel, and think. Here are 3 tips to ensure better communication at work:

1. Be Clear: don’t go in circles about what you want, think, or feel; state it as simply as you can, as if you are talking to a child and want to get the point across to them.

2. Be Concise: don’t let your message get lost amid endless talk and points; stick to the point and leave out any irrelevant information. Khair el kalam ma qal wa dal.

3. Be Considerate: actively listen and don’t cut the other person off; let them say what they want without interruption and pay full attention to them while they talk.
