Communication

When thinking of who demonstrates competent communication within a particular context my center director, Linda was the first one to come to mind. She has a way of explaining what she is trying to by using examples and descriptive speaking. She uses ideas and personal situations that others can relate to and have a better understanding.
I hope to be able to communicate as well as she does with our families, staff, and in everyday conversations.
This is very effective with her communication with parents as well.

  1. Catherine, I agree that sharing ourselves is sometimes the best way to break down communication barriers. I think people tend to be a little more open when you are sharing about yourself, however I also think that this depends highly on what is acceptable within a persons individual culture.

  2. People who have confident communication skills amaze me. I am always envious of their skill in all situations. Linda sounds like she is one of those types of people.
