Today's Take-Away - Communication Thoughts (journal or reflection):

1. What types of conversations make me feel uncomfortable?
2. How do I deal with negative emotions of myself/others?
3. Do you think the perception of others is an accurate reflection of me as a leader? Why/why not?
4. Seek first to understand, then to be understood
5. Create a positive atmosphere
6. All successful teams have four components: communication, co-operation, healthy conflict, coaching AND a leader who sees failure as an opportunity to learn and grow.
