The Human Voice

How often have you felt blown off, marginalized, or frustrated by an email? It’s not always the perfect tool for working through situations. The human voice was invented before email. While both are useful in all kinds of relationships, the human voice still trumps the keyboard for significant communications. Sometimes it takes ten emails to equal one phone call or face to face conversation. For sending and picking up signals, managing the message, and getting desired results, the human voice in real dialog, not just one-way voice messaging, can’t be beat. And, you don’t have to rely on electronics to make it work! Substitute one actual conversation for one email on a regular basis and evaluate the results. For most of us, it still work wonders.How often have you felt blown off, marginalized, or frustrated by an email? It’s not always the perfect tool for working through situations.
