The power of famous and funny communication quotes
Famous and funny communication quotes offer certain universal truths we could all live by. Just as a poem can capture an idea that can often be hard to put into regular words, communication quotes can be a wonderful vehicle to get a message across. They could be useful to cheer you and your colleagues up but also to shed light into what causes miscommunication in the workplace. Sometimes, by bringing the point of view of a beloved author, scientist, or comedian it’s easier to lighten the mood and get people to laugh together, a good first step to better communication in the workplace.
How to use communication quotes to your advantage
Sharing communication quotes via social media is a subtle way to contribute to the improvement of communication skills of a specific person or a group. Without openly alluding to a specific situation, you can get the idea across and even get friends and colleagues to have a conversation about the topic.
It’s easy to fall under the illusion that your message was understood. So always verify if that’s so!
You could also use communication quotes as icebreakers either during presentations or small department meetings. Their universal appeal and insightfulness are perfect to help people relax with each other.
