About this Blog

Communication, in its myriad forms, and on its infinite levels, is the key to initiating every social and business transaction (actually an “interaction”). The most important life skills that you can have are 1) the ability to communicate effectively, with precision and power; and 2) the ability to fully read and understand the communications of others, with receptiveness, empathy and educated and finely-tuned intuition. Communication is a key negotiation, management and leadership skill. Learn to communicate using words, body language, kinesiology, symbols, signals, gestures, subliminal persuasion and provocative metaphor.
