Great leaders are amazing communicators. But with all the technology out there, how do you know what platform to use for each message, and how to effectively use that medium? Here are a series of questions to think about when you are trying to decide how to communicate effectively. 1-What is the message you are trying to convey? Consider what you want other people to take away and how they should feel after receiving your message. 2-Who is receiving the message? Communicating with one person is different than communicating with an entire team, just like talking to new employees is different than talking to employees who have been at the company for years. 3-Do you need feedback? If you want some kind of feedback, a personal meeting might be your way to go. Urgent concerns or clarifications might require speaking up in a meeting and asking your question. 4-What is the culture of your audience? Different tools, technologies, or customs that work in your part of the world might not work somewhere else. Understand your audience and be empathetic. Ask yourself these questions to help guide you and make sure that you're using the right medium effectively.   Now more than ever we need to take a step back to define what it means to be a leader and what great leadership looks like. But this isn’t easy to do. In fact, many business leaders struggle with this. You cannot become and build what you don't define.
