This week, Colin talks about the power of communication, and how by keeping those channels open, we create solutions for all.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If we offer a solution, and receive a solution, it results in both parties having two solutions. The power of communication is much more than just exchange.
• Take the opportunity, when you have issues, to get out into the workplace and talk to people and share solutions.

BEST MOMENTS

'I want you to imagine you're in a room and you have an orange, and your friend has an apple...'

'The power of communication is about more than just swapping stuff'
