There's a common saying shared often in our social media streams that you achieve success, we need to take a leap out of our comfort zone in order to access that space 'where the magic happens'.

What’s the true culprit of all misunderstanding? Lack of good communication, how you communicate and how you receive feedback. Well meaning people who believe they have communicated their best intentions, often have the listener receive the feedback harshly. Here are some examples of where miscommunication might happen: 1) Coaching. 2) One-On-One Meetings. 3) Giving a Colleague Constructive Feedback. 4) Brainstorming Sessions. 5) Delegating Tasks. 6) Setting Work Expectations.

I rented a luxury car recently, so that I could travel in style to my eldest son’s wedding. I was delighted, primarily with the celebration, but also with the vehicle. The BMW 335d’s power was phenomenal and its technology was mind-blowing, to such an extent that there were times when I wasn’t sure who was driving – me or the car. This was particularly evident when I came to park for the first time.

Company leaders, especially at burgeoning businesses, often take on several different roles. Regardless of what’s typed on their business card and what objectives they own in terms of a specific team, they may use diverse knowledge and skills to impact other aspects of the business.

IBM reports that less than 10% of strategies are effectively executed and our organizational alignment research finds that strategic clarity is 50% lower outside of the executive suite. As cute as the dog in the picture may be, he will go nowhere while upside down. And, similarly, even a perfectly crafted business strategy will be useless if it exists only on paper or in the board room.
