Communicating Authentically

At a seminar this past weekend, I , in my learning journey, rechannelled some interesting key concepts into my already established knowledge base on this subject that I will share with you..

These concepts focus on “Who you are being is the center of your success”.

It is important to have the integrity of authentic expression and be in integrity with your body language.

You can be best speaker in the world but if your body language is incongruent with your message and betrays your authentic expression, then you have lost all credibility.

To add to these thoughts, I say that in authentic communication, you have to speak to the voice of your audience’s understanding( whether it be one person or an entire group) . This is one way to communicate compassionately and empathetically. Your facial expression, body language and intonation/ inflection of your voice must be in synchronization with the oneness of your integrity, and your desire to be truthful and faithful to your audience.
