What if everyone in your office or company practiced communication excellence too? What if you all had the same tools for communication empowerment? Can you imagine an office or organization where everyone says what they mean and mean what they say, without being mean when they say it? Or, better yet, if they say what they mean and mean what they say, with the conscious intention of empowering excellence?

I offer books by the box at a great price. Plus, I throw in a free half hour webinar to guide your team in how to use the books to create a positive communication culture.

Circling the Line of Continuous Improvement

Linear goes straight. Intuitive circles. Continuous Improvement circles the line of improvement options. 

spiralContinuous Improvement is one of the guiding principles of lean thinking. How do you keep leaning forward? Lean strives towards perfection, while knowing that perfection is not a static state. That means everything is subject to curious inquiry. 

So this week, as I’ve been creating the perfect title for my presentation on lean communication, It’s a creative process, which means I need to allow lots of room for circling intuition. I invited input from many others. Paul gave input that hit home deeply. I created a title. Lee loved it with minor tweaks. Kelli had a very different idea altogether. Karyn took a new direction with it. And me? I am patiently circling the line of continuous improvement as I move toward the ecstatically – as opposed to statically – perfect title. 

Johnny Cash walked the line. At the moment, I’m circling it. And while part of me wished my temporary title team would just tell me I’m perfect already, I am willing to circle the line until the deadline arrives or I get so inspired by what I/we come up with, the only think I can say is WOW!

Here’s the thing. Today 81% of employers say that communication skill is a first priority for people they hire. It’s not enough to be skilled. It’s not enough to know what you’re talking about. You need to know how to have the everyday and the critical conversations that lean forward. Otherwise your words will be added noise instead of ideas that are heard above the noise. The right words make all the difference.
