One of the most important topics in efficient team management is effective communication. This is really the key to the highest results of the team. If team members communicate effectively, they do not need to redo tasks.Thus, they save priceless time and have more time for other things to do. Effective communication also means smaller number of conflicts between the team members. During communication people try to understand each other. Of course, care and empathy can help to understand better your interlocutor. So, in other words effective communication reduce stress level in the team, saves time and provides high productivity.
Shortly, talking about efficient communication, we have few elements:
1) sender - the one that send the message
2) receiver - the one, that receive the message
3) the message itself
4) encoding - the process of transforming idea into a message
5) decoding - the process of transforming message into an idea
6) feedback - reverse connection from recipient to sender, that assure that recipient decoded correctly the message
1) Based on the communication structure, my first tip for you will be about feedback. "Feedback" element bring a huge impact in communication, transforming it in efficient communication. Why that one of the most important rules in your team should be check out important tasks or ideas with the recipient. And here comes my first tip.
Usually, it's a bit annoying to ask somebody how has the message been understood? But you can make it through indirect question. For example, " What do you think about this idea?" or "How would you present this task to your colleague, so it sounds interesting?"
This is the brilliant moment of check point!
2) Another tips:
Don't say more then 3 ideas, if the receiver doesn't take notes. Usually people remember main 3 ideas from conversation. Saying this, assure that your interlocutor write down somewhere the task or idea, that has a lot of details or steps.
I could also add here, that I personally prefer 2 types of communication in the team - life one, when I can see also non-verbal communication of my interlocutor and the written one, where i can have detailed information about things without storing them in the head. That helps to be productive, focusing myself on thinking, neither on remembering lots of details.
3) Be attentive to your colleagues non-verbal communication. If for example, your colleague touch his year during your conversation, that could mean that he or she is already tired of your speech and probably, want also to talk something or to end this conversation! Non-verbal communication is helping us enormously to understand the feeling of interlocutor and see his true attitude about the message he or she got.
