Greater Impact Communication
October 2007
 
 

This week I spoke to a group of amazing women at Sanofi-Aventis. The topic was relationship building for career success and "clubbing with the boys"--the obstacles women face when networking with men. One of the comments in the session, was why do we as women have to constantly work on navigating in a male world. So here goes; an article for men on understanding us better.

I will also post this on my blog www.nadiabilchik.com and would love all of your comments and questions.

Don't forget the networking event on October 30th. I hope to see you all there.

All the very best,

Nadia

  • Coaching Men How To Communicate Suavely With Women by Joseph Plazo

    A most efficient way a man can perk up his communication skills with a woman is by listening to her feelings. This might be tricky since he is coming from a different standpoint.

    The earliest thing a man should do is to keep in mind how rapidly disagreeable feelings can surface in a dialogue that he feels is going well. These feelings appear from not listening with an appreciation of the woman's point of view. In order to have a first-rate gender communication take place, a man must begin taking accountability for grasping the way women converse.

    Never censure her when you start to become distressed. Her feelings are valid even if they don't add-up to you. Prior to coming to any inference, appreciate the situation through her eyes. Keep in mind a woman's key communication needs and employ your conversation to get her feeling validated, valued and appreciated. Devote time to assure her and have her know that you care about what she is saying and feeling. Allow her to feel that you are listening to her and your interaction will improve.

    Occasionally males encounter uncomfortable emotions because they do not know what to do to resolve quandaries. To enhance communication, men must oppose the impulse to take the problem entirely off a female counterpart's shoulders. Minimize offering more solutions. Because women always talk about problems does not mean they don't know how to crack them themselves. Women fancy men to listen to them.

    To enjoy fulfilling communication with women, you do not have to incessantly accede with them. If you conflict, however, you'll be able to forward your point if you linger until they finished talking. Men frequently talk over each other when they quarrel. They yell and interject each other. Women read these actions as power games, and communication breaks down.

    Additionally, do not feign to empathize when you do not, and do not routinely defending yourself. You converse better with women if you confess when you don't comprehend. If you differ and feel strongly about the issue, let her know that what she said is essential to you. Then tenderly clarify your point of view. If you flub up, especially when you have hurt her feelings, express regret. As you listen and recognize her feelings, you'll secure the gender gap and unbolt the door to effective communications.
