The ability to communicate matters. According to McKinsey research, effective communication skills can increase the productivity of an organization by 25%. And research by CMS Wire found that companies with effective communications strategies are 3.5 times more likely to outperform their peers. This makes sense to us as millions of business e-mails, voicemails and face-to-face communications are sent to and from people in organizations every day.

In your experience, how many of these messages are clear, concise and efficient? Most people would say, “Precious few!”

If that’s true, billions of dollars in productivity are being drained away by ineffectual everyday communications at work. Just imagine the wasted opportunity:

31 percent of employees report never visiting their internal intranet
92 percent of employees admit to deleting internal emails without opening or reading them
75 percent of employees feel that they’re missing the information required to succeed at their job

Our communication skills training and consulting solutions have a proven track record of helping executives, teams, and individuals improve communication in the following areas:
