What does your answer demonstrate?We all see things differently. Be conscious of the power of

perception when attempting to communicate with others. Are you aware of the perception?

The Do’s of Communication Do remember peoples namesDo ensure you’ve done your homework Do remember communication is not just

about what you sayDo find opportunities to sharpen your

communication skillsDo give eye contact Do be conscious of your non verbal'sDo be conscious of your perceptionsDo Practice… practice, practice

The Don’ts of CommunicationDon’t talk too much, listen and observe more than you talk;

you’ll learn more Don’t talk too little, it will make you appear aloft,

uninterested, or unsociableDon’t make assumptions, they are typically always wrong.

If in doubt askDon’t expect people to understand, what you have failed to

effectively communicateDon’t stop practicing Be afraid to observe how others communicateDon’t be distracted when talking or listening to someone,

it’ll appear as though you are uninterested
