Silence is a negotiation tactic.
Most people ruin it by filling it.
Any thoughts?

People don’t listen to understand.
They listen to reload.
True or false?

This would make a thoughtful and useful gift. It has over 140 photos. When coaching and training this the topic most are fascinated with.

It's an essential skill to learn. https://t.co/DeGubAVHtH

Most professionals think they’re clear.
They’re not.
Poor communication isn’t a “soft skill” problem
it’s an operational cost.

Projects slow down.
Teams misalign.
Clients misunderstand.

The people who rise fastest aren’t the smartest — they’re the clearest.
What’s the biggest communication mistake you see in your industry?

What’s the WORST communication habit you see at work?

The one nobody ever talks about?

Is it:

1. People who talk for five minutes before finally getting to the point
2. Zoom/Teams meetings that should’ve been a 20-second voice note
3. Colleagues who write emails like they’re drafting a legal contract
4. Leaders who say “my door is always open” but are never actually available
5. Presentations that somehow make simple ideas confusing

Or something else entirely?

The quickest way to read someone?
Watch what they do right AFTER they stop talking, not while they’re talking.
Agree or disagree?

@markwil147 Congratulations. What a performance against Trump. Mark is not a flash player but there is something about his style of play that is sooo compelling to watch. Amazing cue ball control.

It's good to get some exercise and spent time with your kids. 7.30 a.m and a knock about with my 9 year old is good for the soul before work. Wishing everyone well.

[Derek Borthwick @Power2Mind]

@Rothmus This is shocking. Poor kids no one deserves this. I feel there is more to this....

[Derek Borthwick @Power2Mind]

@elonmusk Perhaps some other social media platforms may be on the shopping list?

@elonmusk Tulsi seems a pretty stable individual to me.
