EffectiveCommunication
Communication Definitions
• Communication– The exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by
speech, signals, writing, or behavior.
• Effective Communication– When all parties involved in the process have a common
understanding of those thoughts, messages or information.
• Effective Communicator– A person who is able to
ensure that a messageis clearly communicated.
Barriers to Effective Communication
Barriers to Communication (con’t)• Different status of the sender and the receiver
• Use of jargon
• Selective reporting
• Poor timing
• Conflict
• Ourselves
• Perception
• Message
• Environmental
• Smothering
• Stress
It’s usually notthe “what”
of the message…
it’s the “how”of those involved.
A Communication Effectiveness ModelThe five dimensions of social intelligence ("S.P.A.C.E.") include:
• Situational Awareness: – The ability to read situations and to interpret
the behaviors of people in those situations.
• Presence: – Often called "bearing," it's a whole range of
verbal and nonverbal behaviors that defineyou in the minds of others.
• Authenticity: – The behaviors that cause others to judge you
as honest, open, and "real."
• Clarity: – The ability to explain your ideas and
articulate your views.
• Empathy: – The ability to "connect" with others.
*Excerpt from Social Intelligence written by Karl Albrecht

Effective Communication• Identifying who needs what information and communicating
that information in a specific and timely fashion
• Using the most effective communication vehicle to distribute the information
• Listening effectively
• Assisting others in communicating effectively
Listening Skills
• What is the difference
between Listening and
Hearing?
Non-Verbal Communication
UCLA Study
• 93% of communication is expressed non-verbally
Other Studies
• 55 % by the nonverbal communication
• 38 % by voice quality
• 7 % by the words used
Tips to Non-Verbal Communication
• Watch facial expressions, eye contact, posture, hand and feet movements, body movement and placement, and appearance and passage as they walk toward you.
• If a person’s words say one thing and their nonverbal communication says another, you want to listen to the nonverbal communication
• Probe nonverbal communication during a situation in which you need facts and believable statements.
• When leading a meeting or speaking to a group, recognize that nonverbal cues can tell you:
– when you’ve talked long enough,– when someone else wants to speak, and– the mood of the crowd and their reaction to your
remarks.
Be aware of the messages you are sending with your Non-Verbal signals
Being an Active Listener
• Probe
• Question
• Acknowledge
• Respond
Questioning • Closed ended questions are typically looking for one word or
short answers. – Provides the ability for closure to rambling participants and inclusion for
quiet participants.
• Open ended questions leave an opening for the speaker to answer completely about the subject matter.
“Seek first to understand… then to be understood.”
- Steven Covey Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
Acknowledge and Respond
• Paraphrasing
• Perception Checking
• Summarize
Action Items
• Limit your talking
• Ask questions/paraphrase
• Focus on the speaker
• Use positive body language
• Understand that perception is reality
Means of Communication
• Verbal (Interpersonal)– One-on-One– Small Group– Large Group
• Written– Memo– Bulletin Board– Newsletter
• Electronic– E-mail– Intranet/Internet– Video
What are the benefits andrisks/problems with each?
Performance Management
Performance Management• Introduction into the tools and techniques that any
successful manager uses with their employees
• The tools and techniques that will not make you successful.
• How you employ them to develop employees into consistently high performers will define your ability to be viewed as a successful manager within the organization.
Two Roles of a Manager

Assign Projects/ Tasks to Leverage Employee Fit
• What does this mean to you?
• Managers should carefully match employee to jobs within the organization. – Hiring– Work Assignments– Team Projects– Promotions
• Employees that understand and enjoy their work significantly outperform those who do not.
• Give people work assignments where they can succeed – “Set them up to succeed.”
Assign Projects/ Tasks to Leverage Employee Fit

performance is through helping employees find tangible, immediate solutions to specific work challenges.
• How do you provide solutions to your employees day to day challenges?
Provide Solutions to Day to Day Challenges
• How do you provide solutions to your employees day to day challenges?
– Answer their questions– Point them in the right direction– Provide training– Facilitate Problem Solving Meetings– Manage Conflict– Assign mentors, coaches or “buddies”– Ensure you use a structure approach in providing solutions– Have that person research the solution to problem– Have that person lead a problem solving team
Doing the work for them does not help them grow.

Managing Change
Change Opportunity
• Think of a change as problem solving. – Managing change is seen as a matter of moving from a problem
state to a solution state.
• The word problem carries with it connotations that some people prefer to avoid.
• A problem is nothing more than a situation requiring action but the required action is not known.
• The search for the solution is known as problem solving.
Your job is to facilitate the problem solving and guide people through the change.
The 10 Principles of Change Management
1. Address the “human side” systematically
2. Start at the top
3. Involve every layer
4. Make the formal case
5. Create ownership
6. Communicate the message
7. Assess the cultural landscape
8. Address culture explicitly
9. Prepare for the unexpected
10.Speak to the individualSource: strategy + business, Summer 2004
How Employees Experience Change
1. Shock and Denial
2. Resistance
3. Explore
4. Acceptance
Why Employees Resist Change
• Why do you think employees resist change
Why Employees Resist Change (con’t)
• They don’t see the need to change
• They are threatened by the prospect of change
• They feel that the changes are being imposed upon them and they are not involved in the change process
• The don’t share the goals of the organization
• Risks to job, status, income, esteem, respect
The #1 Reason for Resistance to Change is the Fear of Losing Something
Probability of Change Acceptance• Need to create a “burning platform” – sense of urgency
• Need to focus on critical mass– Who’s walking forward and who’s standing still?
– Figure out how many people fall into each category
• Give Feedback– Approach issues from different perspectives
– To convince people, you must come at them from their perspective

Change Gap• For employees to cross the change gap you need to:
– Understand current state of the organization and associated issues with making the changes
– Paint future state for your employees so people know what they are changing “to”, not just where they are changing “from”
– Put in place activities, systems, interventions and rewards for Change to occur

who you are
– The area on the right iswho you can be!
