Ten Tips for Achieving Championship Communication�

by Bill Lampton, PhD.

Several years ago, I made a list of ten tips that will help people achieve Championship Communication.� I haven't changed a single item, because I consider every suggestion both practical and valuable.� Here they are:

• �Listen intently.� People will call you a great conversationalist.

• Write simply.� Big words impress us only in the dictionary.

• Tell stories.� We love once upon a time all our lives.

• Ask questions.� Questions show youre vitally interested in others.

• Record yourself.� Camcorder checkups bring amazing changes.

• Send notes.� Handwritten notes make you unforgettable.

• Remember names.� Recalling a name opens a heart and mind.

• Stay brief.� Short talks establish long friendships.

• Be open.� I may be mistaken removes barriers.

• Introduce yourself.� Eagerness to communicate will captivate.
