I invite you to join Kathleen on her journey and maybe it will be your journey too. In this seventh podcast we tackle the topic of communication and yes, why we often talk past each other. How quickly do we label other people? Do we pigeonhole them? And every time we have something to do with that person, we perceive that person through our reality and yes personal opinion.I am often contacted as a counselor and coach when it is almost too late. Interpersonal hurts run very deep and the mood is either highly explosive or very icy. And from my experience, these conflicts start very small - as misunderstandings. The first little hurts occur and instead of talking about them or seeking out conversation, many people sweep such events under the rug and hope they will go away. But they don't. Like the elephant in the room, they get in the way and prevent trust and a positive working environment from being built.This podcast gives you tips and provides background knowledge to open up certain pigeonholes ... so you can "get out" certain people and give them another chance - perceive them differently and yes, seek dialogue instead of avoiding the elephant in the room.....Tune in - Find out - Grow your Life.And remember: Leadership starts with you!You can find out more about my new business novel "Leadership Starts with You" at https://leadership-starts-with-you.com/.
