Description
“The greatest problem with
communication is the illusion it has been accomplished.”
This quote from George Bernard Shaw may sum up how many
organizational leaders feel. Leaders are expected to set
an organizational vision, chart a course toward it, and
coordinate with and through others to get there.
Communication is crucial to achieve alignment and
movement toward organizational or individual goals and
how communication is done is as important – or perhaps
more important – than its specific content. Paula
Bartholome will start this one-hour webcast by
discussing what defines a leader and characteristics of
effective leader communication. She will then show how
effective communication supports organizational
performance and contributes to building and maintaining
the necessary interpersonal relationships and open
environment where teamwork, collaboration and mutual
respect support performance. Lastly, she will highlight
how to approach two common communication challenges
leaders face when trying to generate action:
·
inspiring commitment to organizational
initiatives
·
providing performance feedback
