Differentiator #4: Strong Interpersonal communication skills.
What do you mean? I told everyone there would be a change, and that they would be affected by it.
So, while taking minutes on the team meeting yesterday, I noted that you were not clear on vision for the change coming up.
Sometimes people need to know a few more details than "there will be changes." They need to know that their boss is engaged, involved in their personal experiences and cares about their well-being.
Pfff, if they aren't able to understand exactly what I'm communicating than they can just suffer until the next change roll out. They should not have to be babied like this.
...and that's the overview of the project plan.
Do you have a copy of the project plan I can take a review?
Copy? What is this this is the 21st century! Haven't you heard of the paperless office?
Well is there at least a copy of a slide deck we can pass around?
GAH no way you know what they say about PowerPoint!
