18. What is Directed Communication™?
Each Directed Communication™ program is based in 5 principles and customized for each specific audience. 

  1. The first principle deals with the assumptions that are present when individuals engage in any relationship or interaction.
  1. The second principle focuses on the optimal methods for assessing the person and the purpose in a specific timeframe.
  1. Third: How to ask the right questions in the right way to identify the values, needs, and attitudes present in any interaction.
  1. Fourth: How to formulate agreements based on what you learn about your counterpart, and how to break away from the trite techniques that quell positive relationships.
  1. And the fifth principle provides structure to the process of managing the promises, obligations and responsibilities that result from powerful and productive communication.

These five principles are present in the communication process of successful individuals: Directed Communication™ is what successful people do. The conscious development of skills in each of these principles helps you better identify issues you see every day and will improve the performance of your Superstar cast. All of Jeffrey’s programs combine the simple truths with easy-to-remember rules that raise the influence of every participant. Salespeople, managers, department heads, CEOs, customer service, and front line employees will all benefit from this program. 

Directed Communication™ is a communication guide towards a specific achievable objective, and it aligns with the natural process of human communication.

As the ocean anticipates the moon, the tide spells the difference between life and death ...so will change define your business.
