It is all about Communications

Riyadh, leave some for the rest of us :)

It really starts with listening. Listening is an art that on the surface is easy, but tell me, are you thinking about what you're going to say while you are 'listening'?

I want to mention something I ran into per Dinah's comment. I listen to understand and to pick up the nuances of the conversations around the table. Doing so has allowed me to hear the differences in a conversation, the points of view and adjust the planning accordingly. Most recently I ran into a situation where the PMs were expected to take all the notes and create the meetings for all the meetings while at the same time leading the discussion. I found this requirement actually diminished the ability to really listen and understand. I'm not sure you can do both well. Eventually I ran the note taking off to the BA.
