Communication that Builds Trust. Strong teams are built on strong conversations.

In this recorded session, I reflect on six communication practices that improve professional relationships and reduce workplace tension:



• showing you are attending to the other
• the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours
• communicating clearly
• taking responsibility for what we say and how we say it
• using debriefing as a tool for learning rather than blame
• giving feedback


These skills sit at the heart of good leadership, healthy teams and ethical practice.

If you support others in your work, communication matters.

Congratulations Anne Maree Tanney on finally publishing that book. I am so proud to be involved in its inaugural launch on Norfolk Island, at our local school, in early December.
