Do you know how to speak and do you know how to communicate with clients or employees?

Do you know how to speak and how to communicate with clients or your workforce? All people with healthy speech organs can answer this question.
We prepare for the first part of the question from a very early age. Around 18 months of age we begin to say our first words, sometimes with a little clarity of pronunciation, but with a clear meaning, such as “Ma” or “Pa”, to express affection for our mother or father.
Once we learn to speak, we continue to do so until we can sound like an FM radio transmitter, or like Fidel Castro, or like Democratic Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi and her eight-hour speech on the podium of the US House of Representatives.
Now you know that speaking is not the same as communicating? Do you know the advantages you can have with this resource, for example when doing business or communicating with clients?
Who taught you to speak?
When I am working as a facilitator in the various Coaching and Positive Neurocommunication kuwait phone number certifications, I always ask my students the following questions:
Do you remember exactly who gave you your first kiss of love? An astonishing 90% of respondents remember it clearly, no matter how many years ago it happened. The remaining 10% are the ladies who are present with their current partners and don't say it, but rather give a brief, mischievous smile as a sign that they remember it too.
Then I ask them if they remember the name of the teacher who taught them math or physics in their college days, and they also say the name and even mention the teacher's mother as a powerful anchor for memories of those late nights and moments of anxiety before an exam.
The situation changes radically when I ask them: Do you know who taught you to speak? Take advantage, dear reader, and answer this question. Doubt and uncertainty reign in the room and the answers are in soft voices: I think my Mom, or my Nana, or my Grandma, or my Dad. The truth is that we are not sure who taught us such a fundamental skill in our lives and who gave us the first communication patterns.
