CONNECT & CONVINCE

CONNECT & CONVINCE: BUILD CONSENSUS, INCREASE INFLUENCE & ENHANCE PERFORMANCE

Is your team losing out on valuable business because they lack the skills to influence customers and stakeholders?
Are meetings unproductive or uncomfortable, with the same few individuals dominating all the time?
Are employees afraid, or unable to speak up, resulting in important insights going unexpressed?

High performing teams that communicate well can increase productivity by as much as 25%

– McKinsey

When employees are unable to communicate effectively, the outcomes can include:

Increased mistakes, resulting from a lack of clear instructions and feedback
Higher turnover rates as frustrated employees leave in search of a more transparent culture
Conflict and distrust, resulting from ambiguity and mixed messages
Decision-making delays due to lack of clarity and consensus
Missed opportunities and reduced innovation when employees don’t have the tools to influence, persuade and share valuable insights
A lowered bottom line resulting from the inability to communicate effectively with clients and customers, whether internal or external

“Good communication is the bridge between confusion and clarity.”

– Nate Turner

44% Failure to complete a project
31% Low employee morale
