Communication Skills Training

A Practical Guide to Improving Your Social Intelligence, Presentation, Persuasion and Public Speaking Skills

Introduction

I ts one of the most important abilities in life, but you wont really learn it at school. There are very few teachers on this crucial subject, but everyone has to go through the learning process and pass exams many times in their lives. There are no TV programs about it, although it is used by everyone, everywhere, all the time. The survival of a species depends on its quality and the better animals or tribes master it, the more dominant they become over others. During a major part of most peoples lives, its automatic and not something they are fully aware of.

Effective communication exactly what makes human beings dominant on this blue planet.

It is said that speech is silver, but silence is gold. Still, few will argue about the great power of words, either spoken or written.

In my personal experience, lack of communication skills is exactly what ruins most peoples lives. If you dont know how to communicate properly, you are going to have problems, both in your intimate and family relationships. You are going to be ineffective in work and business situations. Its going to be troublesome on a daily basis managing employees or getting what you want from your boss or your clients. Overall, Id say effective communication is like an engine oil that makes your life run smoothly, getting you wherever you want to be. There are very few areas in life in which you can succeed in the long run without this crucial skill. Obviously, there are also other factors influencing the quality of your career (knowledge, huge network of contacts, experience, professional approach, proper education), relationships (soft skills, self-confidence, emotional intelligence ) and other areas. Its quite clear that all of your investments in the quality of communication, in improving its standards, learning new abilities or patterns and taking it to an entirely new level, lead directly to improvement in your self-confidence, soft skills, career, relationships and your entire lifes quality.

Have you ever considered how many times you intuitively felt that maybe you lost something important or crucial, simply because you unwittingly said or did something which put somebody off? Maybe it was an unfortunate word , bad formulation, inappropriate joke, forgotten name , huge misinterpretation, an awkward conversation or a strange tone of your voice? Maybe you assumed that you knew exactly what a particular concept meant for another person and you stopped asking questions? Maybe you asked so many questions, you practically started an interrogation? Maybe you could not listen carefully or could not stay silent for a moment? How many times have you wanted to achieve something, negotiate better terms or ask for a promotion and failed miserably? It s time to put that to an end with the help of this book.

Personally, I have had some serious trouble with accurate and effective communication during my lifetime, particularly back in my childhood, teenage and early college years. On the one hand, people usually liked me; I had a bunch of good friends and was rather a social kind of a kid. On the other hand, I cant even count how many times I flunked really important exams in my life because of the inability to send precise messages, to listen carefully, perceive what others were telling me without judgements or adjust what I wanted to say so my colleagues could understand what I really meant. Too many times I would lose my chances for a second date with girls I liked because I never knew when to shut up, stop being funny and cool, and just start listening instead. I unwittingly offended some very stringent teachers or professors a few times because I could not see the world or a given problem from their perspective (which, obviously, resulted in VERY hard times for me, both on lessons and on exam sessions). I did not know how to deal with my parents and family during arguments and conflicts, how to maintain business contacts and, what the heck, I even got fired twice because of my lame communication skills and lack of intuition in conversations. At a certain point, I almost hit rock bottom. I lost my job, my health was bad, I ended my long-term relationship, depleted my bank accounts to make a few very bad investments and got in a really deep mess. Thats when I promised myself I would learn from my mistakes, gather myself together and rebound.

I kept my promise. My self-development journey started. It exploded and I never stopped my quest of self-betterment. I started reading TONS of books and watching LOADS of DVDs about many different subjects, which I decided to master in a few years time. Sales, startups, soft-skills, meditation , emotional intelligence, eastern philosophy, NLP verbal communication was one of those crucial topics. In this book, I will share with you all the most important things I learned during my journey, so you dont have to commit the same errors and make the same costly mistakes. I learned it the hard way, so you dont have to!

Verbal communication is the most basic kind of communication among people. It has two forms: oral and written. Effectiveness of the former, on which Im focusing in this book (although not exclusively, you will also have a chance to learn about non-verbal communication), is primarily influenced by fluency of speech and skillset of a sender, accentuation of particular parts of a message, confirmation from a receiver and paraphrasing of the received information in order to make sure that the real intent was understood correctly.

When talking about verbal communication skills, I mean certain competencies which include knowledge, abilities and attitude . On top of that theres experience, which makes applying effective communication patterns possible.

To explain it simply, only by applying knowledge and practicing certain abilities by having the right attitude is it possible to improve quality of your communication skills.

Quality is infinite as an indicator. This simply means that if you keep working on the improvement of your communication competences, you will be constantly strengthening the quality of your career, relationships, social skills and your entire life, ad infinitum. There are hardly any limits, in terms of what you can learn and how much you can improve your social interactions.
