The Key to Great Communication

8/1/2021

Comments

 
Communication is a work of art. When you figure out the way someone communicates and the way they receive the communication, this can lead to even better conversations and help avoid misunderstandings.
 
Although not everyone communicates the same, there are two main communication styles that people tend to adopt, Aesthetic or Pragmatic. This month, you’ll learn about those styles and how to effectively talk to each. However, communication isn’t the only space where people differ — we're also sharing details on the two major work styles, and how you can make the most of your own for the best results.  
 
Identifying how you and those around you work and communicate will be a game changer. Conversations and projects in your personal and professional life will feel easier when you have this knowledge in your back pocket. And after a while, you’ll start to notice these traits in people wherever you go!
