Communication is a fundamental and KEY skill for any worker or manager. There are five essential elements to good communication:
Clarity: Communication should be clear and concise so that all parties understand what is being said and what needs to be done.
Respect: Every person deserves respect at work.
Understanding: Listen actively to what others are saying and it is up to you to ask questions if you do not understand.
Responsiveness: Respond promptly to emails, texts, and phone calls when you are at work. This shows that you care about your work and want to do a good job for your company as well as for yourself personally. Responsiveness is also wonderful for your image.
Integrity: Always be honest with yourself and others. If you promise to reply or complete a task by a certain time or date, other people will depend on you to make other arrangements and promises to others. Would you rather have a reputation for breaking your promises and being late? Or would you rather have an impression of delivering on your promises and delivering on time?
