Effective Communication
It all starts with communication. It's about communicating clearly, concisely, and openly while maintaining collaborative work relationships with others. Employees with effective communication skills are better equipped to listen actively to learn from and understand others, manage conflict, influence others, negotiate with others to achieve individual and team goals, demonstrate versatility in adapting to others' interpersonal styles, deliver engaging presentations, and connect with people of different cultures and/or in other countries.
