How to Communicate with Power & Influence
________________________________________
There is a tremendous difference between talking and communicating. Everyone talks, but not all communicate with effectiveness. Communicating with power and influence is a skill that can be learned by anyone. Those who have learned this skill have used it to their advantage to:
- Further their careers
- Deepen their relationships with family and friends
- Successfully market their businesses
We’ve all met people who we felt were effective communicators. Think about some people in your life who were able to connect with others, succinctly and powerfully communicate a message, or move people to action: community leaders, a colleague, boss, or perhaps a friend or family member.
If you don’t feel you are a very good communicator right now, don’t worry. It is a skill that can be easily learned; and like any skill, the more you practice, the better at it you will become!

Effective Communication Means Understanding
It Means Having a Connection
Why is effective communication so powerful? The answer to that question can be found in a quote by Kim Krizan from the movie “Waking Life:”
“Language comes from our desire to move beyond our isolation and have some sort of connection with one another. Words by themselves are lifeless, they’re inert. They’re nothing more than symbols. So much of our experience is intangible; so much of what we perceive cannot be adequately expressed. And because of that, when we communicate with one another, and we feel we’ve connected, that we’re understood—it’s almost like having a spiritual communion with that person.”
What we all want from one another is to connect. When we connect, we feel a special affinity with the person who we believe really understands us.
