Only 7% of communication is the words you use; the rest - 93% - takes place through nonverbal personal interaction. When your workforce doesn’t come to the office, the possibility of miscommunication is overwhelming. Keep that in mind when deciding how much you want your employees to work remotely.
Each of us creates our own map of reality, or our own model of the world; and a big part of connecting with other people is finding where your maps or models overlap. Ask questions of the people around you so that you can discover the point where your visions intersect - and from then on, communicating will be much easier and more effective.
On the other hand, if we only look at our own models of the world, we’ll never move beyond our preconceived notions of how things work, and how people act. This will hamper communication just as much as seeing other people’s models will help it.
When you feel stuck by a self-limiting belief, write it down on an index card. That way you can confront it properly, recognize that you’re writing a story, and - most importantly - realize that there may be different (and better) endings than the ending you’ve already envisioned.
