Dan Sullivan: 4 Painfully Obvious Communication Strategies Everyone Forgets

It’s common to talk about the need to “improve our communication,” yet people often lack practical strategies or don’t know what’s wrong or how to fix it.

Here are some strategies you can use to connect with your team and communicate more effectively.
