How to apologise EFFECTIVELY- Part I
Apologizing effectively is like navigating through a dense forest. Imagine you're on a path surrounded by thick foliage, where one wrong step could lead you astray. In the same way, a misstep in your apology can take you off course and create more harm than good. Mastering the art of a sincere apology involves knowing the right steps to take and the pitfalls to avoid. A genuine apology should acknowledge the hurt, take responsibility, and offer a way to make amends. This podcast episode is the first leg of this series and is followed by the second and last leg in the next episode. We’ll explore practical tips and techniques for apologizing effectively, establishing boundaries, and cover how to recognize the mistakes that lead to bad apologies. Whether it's a personal or professional apology, knowing how to apologize effectively can turn a difficult conversation into an opportunity for growth and understanding. Today, after some 25 years of coaching in communication skills, I've noticed a common thread. It's not that people are bad at communicating because they're inherently bad at it. It's about the disconnect between what they're saying and who they truly are. Get ready for a jam-packed episode of your favourite Communication Skills podcast!    If you like this podcast, subscribe and spread the good word by telling a friend.

How to sound TRUSTWORTHY!

How to sound TRUSTWORTHY!
You know, it's kind of interesting how just saying "hello" can give away whether someone's trustworthy or not. Like, most folks can pick up on it just from the tone of their voice. Imagine, you're browsing through training courses, eyeing one led by someone who seems to lack experience in the subject. Or maybe you're considering making a purchase from a salesperson who has let you down before. And then there's the leader who rarely keeps their word, expecting you to go the extra mile. Would you be all in for any of these scenarios? Probably not. Why? Because when you're investing your time, energy, or trust, you want assurance that it's worth it. That's where credibility comes into play. It's like the secret sauce that makes you think, "Yep, this is someone I can rely on." Credibility? It's like the cool stuff we talk about, the skills we flaunt, and those shiny credentials we've earned. Now, reliability? That's all about walking the talk, being as predictable as your morning coffee order. See, it's not just about what we say, but what we do that really seals the deal! What exactly is credibility? Why does it matter so much? And, most importantly, how do you make yourself trustworthy? Let's dive in and find out.  After 25 years of training folks in communication skills, I've noticed a common thread. It's not that people are bad at communicating because they're inherently bad at it. Nah. It's more about the disconnect between what they're saying and who they truly are.

How to console/ comfort someone?
Jul 5 2024
How to console/ comfort someone?
You know, by the time we reach middle age, life tends to throw us a few curveballs - losing loved ones, dealing with illness, going through divorces, or getting laid off from jobs. It's like a series of tough punches. But you know what's interesting? Even though we've been through some stuff ourselves, when someone we care about is going through a really tough time, we often struggle to find the right words to show our love and support. We end up feeling awkward or just defaulting to a generic "I'm so sorry." Veena had been eagerly awaiting the results of her job interview for weeks. When the email finally arrived, her heart raced as she clicked it open. But instead of the congratulatory message she had hoped for, it contained a polite rejection. Disappointment washed over her, and tears welled up in her eyes as she realized she hadn't gotten the job she so desperately wanted. Her roommate, Emily, noticed Veena's distress and immediately went to her side. She put an arm around Veena's shoulders and offered a comforting hug. "I'm so sorry, Veena," Emily said softly. "I know how much you wanted this. It's okay to feel upset. You're talented, and I'm sure another opportunity will come your way soon." Veena buried her face in Emily's shoulder, grateful for her friend's support. In that moment, all she needed was someone to be there for her, to offer a listening ear and a shoulder to lean on. With Emily's comforting presence, Veena knew she would be able to pick herself up and keep moving forward, despite the disappointment she was feeling. Are you always able to help your friends like Emily? Do you know how to console someone in need or do you just freeze, not knowing what to say or do. This episode trains you in what I call the COMMUNICATION TRIPOD- a master strategy to help console your loved ones, when they need you. When sitting with your loved ones, avoid getting distracted, as much as possible. Be there in body and spirit, and make sure to be yourself.
Difficult Conversations: UNPLUGGED!

Difficult Conversations: UNPLUGGED!
Having a tough chat might mean dealing with stuff you'd rather avoid, finding yourself at a loss for words, facing conflicting views, not knowing how things will turn out, or just feeling uneasy about the whole thing. So, when I'm helping folks through tough talks, we're usually gunning for one of three things: a solution, a plan, or just getting each other. A solution is like the big win, where everyone's happy, all problems are solved, and it's supposed to last forever. Sounds great, right? But sometimes, pushing for that perfect fix can actually make things worse by piling too much pressure on already strained relationships.  A plan, though, that's a bit more down-to-earth. It's like a roadmap to a solution. It keeps things flexible, gives us a way forward, and helps us redefine how we relate to each other with new rules and expectations. But honestly, especially in the beginning, the most realistic goal is just understanding each other. It's about really getting where the other person is coming from, understanding their feelings, fears, and dreams. Getting to that point can be a huge relief and set the stage for making a plan, finding a solution, and building a better relationship.  Let’s unplug these tough convos and learn how to navigate through them without difficulty! Now, after 25 years of training folks in communication skills, I've noticed a common thread. It's not that people are bad at communicating because they're inherently bad at it. Nah. It's more about the disconnect between what they're saying and who they truly are.

The power of POSITIVE communication!
Apr 19 2024
The power of POSITIVE communication!
Do you struggle in making people agree with you Or listen to you? So, let's talk about positive communication, because that’s what you need! It's basically all about spreading good vibes, making sure everyone gets where the other person is coming from, and making sure everyone feels good about the convo. When you communicate positively, you're being constructive, supportive, and just generally bringing those good feels into the mix.   Now, when it comes to getting your point across at work, being assertive is where it's at. Assertive communicators are like the champs of respectful and productive talk. They're confident in sharing their ideas, but they always keep it polite and respectful. And hey, they're not afraid to tackle challenges head-on, but they also know when to put their foot down.   And let's not forget the power of stories! They're like little mirrors of our own experiences, showing how we think, plan, and find meaning in life. Plus, they're super effective in getting people on board with an idea or spreading the word.

Magic Trick to Stop Rambling- Part I
Hey, got a big presentation on the horizon? Feeling overwhelmed by all the content you have to cover? Worried about whether what you say will actually be valuable to your audience? I get it, starting can be tough when you're drowning in information and unsure where to begin. And I know, the clock is ticking, adding to the pressure. Top of it, you worry that you might end up rambling or waffling on! It's a common fear. Rambling occurs when you haven't prepared well or when your notes aren't helping you stay on track. It's like talking a lot without really saying anything substantial. Let's call it the "Waffle Trap" – speaking without a clear point or going on when you've already made your point. So, how do we avoid this trap and speak engagingly and in an impactful manner? Learn this, and a master strategy which works wonderfully well to control all that unwanted rambling!
