Conscious Communication in Life and Work with Elaine Lou Cartas

Communication in the workplace can be fraught. 

Bringing together groups of people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives can create situations ripe for conflict and miscommunication.

But we can shape workplace cultures where people feel witnessed, appreciated, and respected.

Elaine Lou Cartas joins Erica and India for a discussion about creating space for difficult conversations in the workplace, the importance of behavior modeling from leaders, and how conscious communication deepens our relationships.

In this discussion:

How our backgrounds inform our communication styles Why it’s important to obtain consent and create context for providing feedback  Why leaders need to be aware of the communication styles they model to their teams How conscious communication deepens our relationships at work and in life
