Effective Communication  (continued from March 23) Effective communication skills vary from one person to another. Some, are very comfortable on the phone - others find this stifling and prefer one-on-one discussions, in person over a meal or coffee.

Others may be most comfortable speaking to a group, following their set list of points for the presentation and then leaving after it is done. Another person may really enjoy being on air... on terrestrial or online radio, podcasts or stream video media. Understand that each of these situations requires experience and special skill sets; each situation will require different prep and information gathering.   Even the most experienced communicator will have moments where they are not at their best.

Also, try a few practice runs on a friend or co-worker - they can help you spot whether you have used the right smile, eye contact, gestures, posture and voice. The first item on the agenda is determining who your audience is and what the ideal outcome of that meeting will be. With that in mind let's ask ourselves several questions: How do you envision this happening?  Have you researched your client prior to visiting them?  Do yo...
