Hi guys, It’s me again- Julia.

This is my sixth challenges and today I want to share


with you about the enticing topic, that is relating to good communicator. Now let’s
get started.

I will tell you five successful practices of great communicators

1. They know what they are talking about

Great communicators are competent and have vast knowledge about their areas of

expertise. They are prepared to show people that their communication is

valuable. Great communicators appreciate the time people spend listening to them

and interacting with them. Great communicators understand that people won't

listen--nor respect them--if they don't know what they are talking about. They

place high value on providing effective and authentic communication because they

want to keep an environment of respect and engagement.

2. They listen more than they speak

Great communicators listen more than they speak. They won't dominate a

discussion or a presentation. Great communicators frequently ask questions to give

people an opportunity to share their knowledge and express their opinions. Great

communicators give themselves permission to listen to others; in this way, they

understand what people are thinking. They know how to balance speaking and

listening effectively. This makes people feel that what they say truly matters.

3. They focus on understanding what people say


Great communicators don't spend time preparing brilliant answers in mind when

someone is speaking. Instead, great communicators ask questions to clarify things

and to make sure that people understand what others are saying. They focus

intensely on understanding what people are communicating; otherwise, they find

themselves arguing and losing focus. They continually check their understanding

to avoid miscommunications, misunderstandings, and assumptions.

4. They pay attention to nonverbal communication

Great communicators are aware that what people say isn't the most important thing

in their communication. Great communications acknowledge the power of

nonverbal communication and keep an eye on the tone of voice, body language,

and facial expressions of people. They know that nonverbal communication speaks

louder than verbal communication; they listen with their eyes and ears, and pay

attention to people's posture, hand movements, and eye contact because these also

send very powerful messages.

5. They are aware of misunderstandings

Great communicators realize that in any communication the room for

misunderstanding is always present.  Great communicators also watch for

alignment of words, message, tone of voice, and body language. If any of these

verbal and nonverbal communication aspects lack consistency, communication


becomes a disaster. This is generally an overlooked factor that can be easily

prevented.

That is end of my talk, please give me any advices to help me improve more in te
future.
