- How to benefit from the conversations you have at work economist.com
Demonstrable curiosity about other people’s experiences and ideas can benefit everyone. Asking questions, not cutting people off, pausing to digest what someone has said rather than pouncing on breaks in a discussion to make your own point: these are not enough to qualify someone as a supercommunicator. But in plenty of organisations they would still represent good progress.

There are two useful types of meetings: alignment and creation. Briefly, alignment meetings are tactical communication exchanges that rarely dive into the strategic. These are fine meetings that have a weekly cadence, and while there are lots of ways to screw up these meetings, their tactical repetition often keeps them on the rails. Creation meetings — diving into solving a hard problem — involve, well, more creativity. Each hard problem requires a unique solution, and finding that solution is where creation meetings can go bad.

Why do some ideas thrive while others die? And how do we improve the chances of worthy ideas?
Modern organisations are finally starting to define themselves by looking inwards, chasing authenticity instead of the latest fleeting trends [...] These seven principles are the creeds of a thoroughly modern approach to corporate communications.
