LISTENING, PERCEIVING, SPEAKING

Understanding ourselves and others is complex! There are so many facets to the gems we are. As I envision it, listening deeply, perceiving clearly, and speaking wisely are critical to clear, authentic, forward-moving communication—they are intertwined and almost inseparable. All of the services I have to offer pay homage to the interrelated nature of these areas.

Are you seeking a simple path to creating a more joyful life
and the future of your dreams?

Join Jill for her next Appreciative Living Learning Circle.

You will learn an easy-to-understand, practical set of exercises
that will change the way you see the world and help you become truly happier.

And best of all, these new practices take just a few minutes a day.

Discover more here.

How well do you listen to yourself?

In developing mindfulness, self-awareness of our strengths and our challenges can be enhanced. As a result of better understanding ourselves, we may realize the need or desire for integrating mindfulness practices into our work, deepening our resilience, using breath work to support more calm in our lives, or Emotional Freedom Techniques/Tapping to get past challenges in our present or past. I offer private coaching in these areas. You can schedule a complimentary session here.

How do you perceive yourself, others, and your relationships, at work and at home?

Have you made the time to explore how you show up, day-to-day, in the world, what happens when you are asked or required to step into new situations, meet new people, or adapt to others? Would taking the Platinum Rule, a behavioral styles inventory, give you insights into your interpersonal relationships?

Perhaps you are part of a team or work with many others. Helping everyone gain a sense of the commonalities and differences among behavioral styles is a great first step on the path to understanding how to work with diversity and create inclusion in the workplace. Leveraging people’s strengths and mitigating the challenges of their styles can create stronger relationships.

About the Platinum Rule

Engaging with people, both in and out of the work environment, requires self awareness and insight into others’ behaviors. The Platinum Rule is a framework for understanding yourself and others. It provides critical insights into behavioral preferences—what drives you and others—and offers options for accommodating both similarities and differences.

Communicate with greater understanding. Build even stronger relationships with ease. Applying the results of the Platinum Rule can enhance your interactions with others, view a sample Platinum Rule report here.

Are you interested in learning about your personal style and the means to create rapport with ease? Click here to contact Jill about taking the Platinum Rule and to scheduling a coaching session to discuss your results.

How do you speak to yourself or to others?

What is the nature of the conversations you have with yourself? Are you aware of your needs, caring,and kind to yourself? Have you, for the most part, banished your inner critic? Would gaining more compassion, for yourself and others, add to your every day well-being?

As you reflect on your work relationships, or perhaps your close personal relationships, what do you notice? What is your thinking about the degree of ease with which you interact with others? There will always be differences of opinion and conflicts in life… How do you feel about engaging in conflict? What would it be like to consistently conclude challenging conversations with all involved having a more clear understanding of each other’s thoughts and feelings? What would be the impact of focusing your attention on how you communicate, and co-create relationships with others?

If one or more of these areas of communication resonates with you, please schedule a complimentary strategy session so that we can discover which option, coaching and/or training, will be the right fit.
