Business Communication: How to Connect with Clarity

"The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place." �Although this quote from George Bernard Shaw was from the early 20th Century, it seems to apply today more than ever. As many of us engage in staccato, rapid-fire exchanges of information, our lack of focus often leads to errors, a loss of productivity, missed business opportunities and cost overruns. Just because we can multi-task doesn't mean that we do it as well as we could!

According to an IDC white paper commissioned by the employee assessment specialist Cognisco, over $37 billion is lost annually in�costs attributed to employee misunderstandings around company policies, business processes or job functions. In today's hyper-engaged, increasingly mobile workplace, we need to communicate as clearly as possible to create positive, powerful impressions. From Warren Buffet to Jeff Bezos, today's leaders have become known for the way they communicate across their organizations, as companies�led by effective communicators had a whopping 47% higher total returns to shareholders over the last five years.

Effective business communication skills can inform, influence and impact our audiences. Every letter, memo, proposal, e-mail or post provides insight into how we represent ourselves- and our organizations.

At Hospitality Resource Group, effective communication is�critical�to our success,�as it plays a key role in how we manage�activities among our three businesses, working with strategic partners to deliver results for our clients.�Strategic Training Solutions (STS) offers a Business Communication Skills workshop centered on developing effective communication in a variety of�formats and forums.
