A Melanie Minute: Effective Communication

Season 4, Episode 1A Melanie Minute: Effective Communication The old adage that reminds us to say what we mean if we mean what we say is fundamental to effective communication ... meaning to say, that is, in sum, in other words … well … now that’s not very effective, is it?And as host Melanie Taddeo explains in this Melanie Minute, effective communication in fact goes beyond what we write or speak, beyond the use of cliches or trite expressions – it’s part of our facial and body language, whether the messages are intended or not.Sometimes it’s what the receiving end interprets that can be more important than what is intended by the sender. It’s all part of that package that contributes to whether our communication is effective or whether we end up communicating something a little different than what we hoped.So what better way to begin season 4 than with this Melanie Minute that reminds us to keep our eyes, ears and senses tuned-in to how our communications are received and understood.A Melanie Minute is an exclusive feature of Connect4Life: The Podcast, brought to you by host Melanie Taddeo, President and CEO.For more information about Connect4life visit www.connect4life.ca.#disbilities #nonprofits #charity #fundraising #givingback #nonprofitorganization #socialgood #makeanimpact #socialimpact #notforprofit #makeadifference #causes #supportnonprofits #dogood #inclusion #disabilityawareness #accessibility #disabilityadvocate #disabilityrights #disabilityinclusion #careerdevelopment #skilldevelopmenttraining #accessibilitycanada #connect4life #aoda #unitednations #crpd #melanietaddeo #podcasts #podcast #disabilitycanada #communication #businesscommunication #melanieminute
