Ep 130: 6 things school didn’t teach you about communication

Welcome to Rethinking Communication!

Over the past four years, I’ve uncovered some aspects of communication that have largely gone untaught in our traditional educational settings.

So, I’m pivoting this podcast to focus on how we can bridge these gaps in our collective communication skill set.

In this first episode under the new banner, I introduce you to six things school didn’t teach you about communication that I’ll strive to explore and understand better as this show progresses.

They are:

  • How to acknowledge emotions rather than letting them take over

  • How to ask curious questions

  • How to navigate conflict

  • How to build support and drive change

  • How listening is as important as speaking

  • How to challenge your assumptions
