Transform Your Life With Steve and Pete

Communication: What Do They Need to Know?

Steve Chua and Pete Cafarchio Season 4 Episode 31

Transformation Tip: “How well we communicate is not determined by how well we say things but how well we are understood.” – Andrew Grove, engineer, CEO


This week’s talent: Communication


Intrinsic needs:

  • To process/think/learn “out loud”
  • Frequent opportunities to speak and/or to write
  • A collaborative sounding board(s), and objective feedback


Potential blindspots:

  • Because you are naturally verbal and instinctively share your thoughts, you may not realize when you are monopolizing a discussion. 
  • Remember that your words are not always enough to motivate others. 
  • Be careful to not judge bad or even mediocre presentations


Transformation Application: If you’re going to give a presentation, your natural tendency will be to shoot from the hip, because you’re gifted.  But, practice and prepare, and it will be that much more effective.

If you’re not a communicator but need to present, go talk to a communicator they’ll help you get it nice.
