How to Tackle Overtalking
Manage episode 448869278 series 73488
A chief officer had known for years he was an over talker. His CEO, desperate for improvement, gave him a coach. This episode highlights their first coaching conversation.
Two mindsets from this episode:
- When you speak, have a destination in mind.
Ask yourself: “What is my point exactly?” and “Why is this something they need to know?”
- Pay attention to your listeners. Respond to their interests.
Ask yourself: “Does what I’m talking about right now help us get to the destination?” If not, skip it.
It doesn’t matter why you overtalk. Overtalking is limiting. Build your awareness of when you do it.
Learn to ‘hear’ the communications you have.
Who talked how long?
What were the smaller conversations within the larger communication?
