Communicating better improves morale and performance, and cuts down on turnover. Poor communication wastes time and makes those you interact with feel discounted. It’s even more magnified with the younger generation. Generation Y wants lots of feedback and they want it NOW! The annual review just isn’t enough, so start communicating better. Talk about youd expectations, their achievements and what can be done differently. Share your goals and build a culture that supports it – beginning with communication.
And remember, communication is a two-way street. Be willing to listen to feedback, as well as giving it! You’ll be glad you did.
Now, tell me what you think – share it with my readers.
