Many people confuse communication with delegation, but in business effective communication gets better results. To effectively be involved in a "two-way" exchange of ideas that reach a logical conclusion is the adapted definition of communications in a business environment.

To effectively communicate, it is not enough to be able to express thoughts and ideas in an understandable manner. It is equally important to insure the thoughts and ideas are understood in the same manner in which they were expressed.

Communicating what you, as the business owner, want to accomplish is only the first step in communications. Asking others for their input about the best way to accomplish it, is the second step. Most importantly, being willing to accept their ideas and criticism about how the job is being approached can be the best move any business owner can make.

Being made to feel appreciated is one of the best methods of making others want to help you, and by having ideas presented during open, invited communications, you can achieve that goal. Making others feel their opinion matters to you, however, is also dependent on where the communication takes place.

Whenever possible, communication with those that work under you should take place either in their environment or in another location at which they feel they are on a more level field of play.

Moving the discussion to their work environment makes them feel more at ease, and when they are at ease, they are willing to listen. They will be more open to discussing what they do not like about your plan and suggest ways to make it better.
