We are all aware that effective communication plays a crucial role in the workplace, but recent research has quantified its value. Grammarly and the Harris Poll found that U.S. businesses lose $1.2 trillion a year, or approximately $12,506 per employee, due to poor communication. In addition, a recent study by McKinsey found that effective communication increases a team’s productivity by as much as 25%. These numbers drive home a clear message: communication should be a cornerstone of any company’s corporate strategy.
To help us learn how to become more effective communicators, we are thrilled to welcome Charles Duhigg, the Pulitzer Prize-Winning Journalist and New York Times Bestselling Author of books including, The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better. Inspired by his new book, Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection, Duhigg will share what he has learned from studying “supercommunicators,” or people who are proficient at reading cues, listening to others, and getting their point across.
Stemming from the belief that communication is a superpower, Duhigg will teach us the tools that the most effective communicators use in everyday conversation to manage employees, negotiate effectively, and increase productivity and efficiency in any setting.
