– the human connection –
is the key to personal and career success.
Paul J Meyer, personal development pioneer.
Did you know?
Poor communication is linked to
1/3 of all project failures.
The art of communication is the
language of leadership.
James C. Humes, author & presidential
speechwriter.
Three Verbal Communication Questions
Who are you speaking with?
How should you present your message?
Where will you communicate?
The single biggest problem in
communication is the illusion that it has
taken place.
George Bernard Shaw, playwright.
