6 Behavioral Communication Behaviors to Change Your Life and BusinessWe all know the importance of communication. And communication is often talked about in books and articles. But what if you were given the keys to set of proven communication strategies that actually will make a difference?

On this episode of A New Direction, Professors and Co-Authors Julien Mirivel and Alexander Lyon talk about their research on "positive communication" and make it practical for leaders.

Their research focuses on "The Wheel of Positive Communication", which contains the six behaviors that will lead to change in any organization.

What are those 6 Communication behaviors?

1. Greet to Create Human Contact2. Ask to Discover the Unknown3. Compliment to Affect People's Sense of Self4. Disclose to Deepen Relationships5. Encourage to Give Support6. Listen to Transcend Differences

These 6 behavioral changes in communication have been researched and demonstrated that when followed through on by leaders they change their people and their organization.

Julien and Alex's book, "Positive Communication for Leaders: Proven Strategies for Inspiring Unity and Effecting Change" is more than a communication book it is a practical psychology book that enables to take action to start changing your organization.

This book is not only great for business, but the behavioral principles apply to marriage, family, personal and professional relationships.  It also deals with having difficult conversations.

This book quite frankly impacted me so much that I started practicing the strategies right away.  In fact, the very first thing I did is change the way I send emails (and yes they talk about that too in the book).

Julien and Alex also dive into the behaviors that inhibit us from doing the very things we need to do to be more effective leaders and communicators.

If you are like me and you want to improve yourself.  Then you need to read this book!
