  • Context Matters.

    Part 2 of 2 about clear communication for leaders.

    Erin’s Recommended Resources, in her own words

    Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

    I think learning comes from all sorts of places. This book is about writing, not business communication. But there are a lot of great points about clear communication, about striving and even about not taking something too seriously. And, a great suggestion to read. If we want to communicate well, we have to read other people’s communication! Some of the better quotes:

    • “The road to hell is paved with adverbs.”
    • “Words have weight.”
    • Hidden Brain, podcast hosted by Shankar Vedantam. Explores human behavior and has a lot to teach us about how we interact.
