I am so blessed to have an amazing team of women that I lead. Our ages span many generations. Our communication styles are so different.
In asking everyone about their weekend, I took the time to really listen. What were they saying? Did the words match the body language or tone of their voice.
Sometimes I underestimate the power of a smile or the few minutes it takes to listen. In the age of everything texted, responses emailed and the quick words passing in the hall, I think we are losing the art of communication.
How many untold stories are hidden behind your smile? Your words? Your body posture? Today I challenged myself to truly listen and to really care. You will never know how a few seconds of your time could positively influence someone today. Give it a try. I would love for you to share how listening made a difference for you or someone you care about.
Thank you for sharing a few moments of your time with me 🙂
