ConnectAbility changes all this using eight steps to fostering optimum communication, which include: Sharing your power with others Expressing yourself with authenticity Engaging your audience with humor Challenging yourself by taking charge Maintaining awareness of emotional dynamics The book contains two tests you can take that will help you pinpoint your own level of ConnectAbility. ConnectAbility is your key to getting things done in a positive manner that benefits not only you and your team--but the organization as a whole.
