For women in business, mindful communication is something that we should always strive for. At Technalink, communicating mindfully is something that helps everyone align with one another and truly get to meaningful conversations that help to push business and personal growth forward. Compassionate leaderships begins with mindful communication; have you ever considered how mindful your communication strategies are?
Communication is comprised of both speaking and listening, and before you speak, focus on the latter to get to the root to mindful communication. A huge factor in compassionate leadership is stopping to listen, and listening is what you should do first when communicating mindfully. Rather than coming on board to a conversation with what you want to say in your mind, step into the conversation with a clean slate and clear head, and stop to listen to what the other person or people are saying. This ensures your mind isn’t in the past or the future, but in the present along with those around you.
Once you’re listening mindfully, you’ll find that speaking mindfully comes much more naturally. By keeping yourself open and clear while taking in information, you’ll be able to respond in a way that takes into consideration all of the elements of the conversation around you without judgement and with an open heart. Your agenda will be put to the wayside, and you’ll be able to offer a mindful perspective to those around you. Using these tactics, a simple conversation will cover much more ground and bring understanding to all parties involved!
Mindful communication is something that can be taught and learned, and we at Technalink believe that teaching mindful communication is just as important as learning it yourself. With open and compassionate leadership, teaching mindful communication can bring these open benefits to everyone within your business.
