Can You Hear Me Now? Communicating for Results

Wherever you go, you see and hear people talking. Cell phone users talk while they shop, walk and drive and barely acknowledge the people who shop, walk and drive beside them!

Friends, family, colleagues and coworkers check caller ID, scroll handheld computers and exchange instant messages as they assure us they’re listening and urge us to “go on…”

We’re talking more and communicating less–we’re “linked,” “hooked,” “wired,” and longing for connection.

Turn off your phones and tune into laughter as we practice the art of customer-focused communication and affirm the value of connection.

Explore the power of active listening and practice communication techniques designed to help you:

• Enhance communication with customers and coworkers
• Build trust and rapport, deepen connection and grow relationships
• Create transformational (not transactional) service moments
• Be heard by customers, coworkers and supervisors
• Look thinner and younger in just one hour (okay, this one may not be true)
