AI Transcript:
Communication is difficult. It's everything and nothing and sometimes we try to get something across and nobody gets it. So how do we communicate with clarity? It starts with getting clarity in your mind before you start speaking. I'm a very bad example. I'm sometimes talking without thinking and while I'm talking, I'm thinking and then doing everything at the same time. Sometimes it's good to step back and say, what do I want to get across? And what is the best way in getting it across to the other person? A wise mentor of me told me that sometimes a step back not talking is the best way of communicating.
How do you communicate? And how do you impact others with your communication? That's what counts as a leader.
