Video: The 4 Skills of Great Communication

Ask anyone who performs at a high level: athletes, dancers, singers, etc. They all prepare and practice their skills the same way. They break their skill down into smaller “sub-skills,” then practice each one individually, then put them all back together, and their overall skill level has improved.

The same is true with communication. “Great communication” is a big topic — a big skill to try to master. But if we break that down into smaller sub-skills, improvement becomes much easier.

The 4 communication sub-skills we identify in our workshops are how well we Assess, Message, Document, and Deliver. When you can master each of these sub-skills, overall communication becomes stronger and more effective. Take a look at the video below to see how we help you break it down, and put it all back together.

Does your team:
– Overwhelm the audience with too much detail?
– Make things too complicated?
– Fail to ask for what they want or need?

Does your organization:
– Waste time because of poor internal communication?
– Take too long to make decisions?
– Struggle to clarify and frame discussions?

Do your leaders:
– Exhibit poor executive presence?
– Lean on incomplete communication skills?
– Fail to align the organization?
