Team Spark: Adapt to Encourage Growth

Adaptive communication is a skill that is also critical to organizational growth. Keeping something the same just “because this is the way we have always done it” hinders an organization from innovating and progressing. Adaptation taps into employee skill sets and allows people to utilize their diversity to improve upon old “songs”, making a new version that supports growth.

Team Spark: Assess Your Communication Style

When communicating with others, particularly people from other countries, it is important to recognize when your communication style has become outdated and when it is time to upgrade to a new technique.

Team Spark: Check Assumptions Before Judging

When judging the “dance” of another person, especially across differences such as culture, be careful about making judgments based upon what you think is important. Focusing on their “feet” while communicating may mean you are missing the most important part of their dance.

Personal Action Plan

Surveys tell us that the more immediately a trainee uses the skills learned in a training session or training course, the more effective they will be at retaining the information and transforming it into new habits. Their commitment begins with a plan.
