Five Fatal Communication FlawsSample

Five Fatal Communication Flaws-Part IV

Although being “slow to speak” is wise, one fatal communication flaw often made in business is that of inadequate communication. Many leaders assume because they understand their vision for their business or department that their employees do as well. But studies reveal that’s rarely true.

A business leader needs to clearly define his or her purpose and vision and communicate it frequently to their team.

The Lord said to the prophet, Habakkuk, in Habakkuk 2, “Record the vision and inscribe it on tablets [plural; emphasis mine], that the one who reads it may run. For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hastens toward the goal and it will not fail.”

The Lord told Habakkuk to inscribe God’s vision on multiple tablets. If you desire to reach your business or department goals, your team needs to hear your vision and purpose frequently.

Questions for Reflection:

• Why do you think frequency is important in vision casting?
• Can you think of a time when a company or department's vision was cast frequently and effectively? What did you learn from this?
• What practical steps can you take to be more effective in your vision and goal casting?
