Constructive Communication
'Communication is like oxygen, you cannot do without it. But just like oxygen it needs to be handled with care, or else a spark can ignite an explosion.' (Axel Würz)
While we are having hours and hours of language tuition at school we are rarely given the chance to learn about positive and negative effects of various types of communication.
Constructive communication shows how to make good times with others last and helps to overcome difficult and challenging situations. It allows to find a way of being assertive without being hurtful, it increases the odds of being heard without neglecting listening.
Following principles of constructive communication will make interacting with others run more smoothly, be it strangers, family or romantic partners. At workplaces it facilitates success that strengthens professional relationships instead of destroying them.
The good news is that constructive communication can be learnt, all it requires is some practice and the openness to look at communication in a new way.
