Refining communication skills to a higher plane is mandatory for better “get along” with others whether it is co-workers, bosses, customers or vendors.  More time required in virtual communication today requires learning to listen for more than sound.  The demands for relationship success are that we must learn to “listen” to other cues, in other ways.  After all, any communication creates rhythm & relationship: A relationship gets better or worse each time there is a communication. Better if the listener can hear the “rhythm.”  Worse if the listener is worn out trying to get into the “rhythm.”  Basic to success is understanding nothing is more personal than a good conversation/communication be it virtual or face to face.
