What Landscapers Are Saying When They Say Nothing at All! - Communication Tips for Effective Leaders
As a landscaper, you think that people follow you because of what you say, and you would be right. However, what people really follow is your body language because people are always communicating—even when they are saying nothing at all. Actions speak louder than words! Whether you are a business owner, a manager or staff person, there are times when you must be able to establish your leadership skills and lead. Make sure you know how to do that effectively. Learn key actions that leaders do to mis-communicate and the "fixes" they can make in order to be a congruent leader.
Learning Objectives
1. Learn techniques to improve your self-confidence, energy, and enthusiasm.
2. Learn how to re-align your thoughts/words/actions to get what you really want in your business!

4. Create a framework to put your experience, know-how, character, and unique new skills to work.
