Communication lies at the heart of any business. There is a simple thing that can be done to improve any businesses communications and yet few businesses ever pay any attention to it. This is commonly found in a business communication all over the Internet. It was only because I said something that immediately made the other person see we were talking about different things that suddenly we started making sense to each other.

So use few words but don’t assume that the other person knows what you are talking about. Of course this is similar to a business communication that is found quite commonly online today. As the saying goes; lose lips sink ships.

Well, there will be light-speed communication around the globe using satellites and what we might perceive as infinite bandwidth. This is rubbish. So use few words but don’t assume that the other person knows what you are talking about. Is it true that not everyone can be trusted with information? Many people would agree, some would go so far as to say that humans cannot be trusted with information, but why? Well, information is power and if you power-up those who cannot control their integrity levels or choose not to, then in a way giving them the information makes you an accessory to their actions.

Soon, we will have super small devices that operate by voice and eventually by thought. In fact I would even go so far as to say that without communication there can be no business. This did not mean believing they were stupid (something business people often wrongly assume about those who read their communications) but that they just knew nothing about what I was trying to get across.
