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.
