I have learned over the years about the value of communication and the ability to communicate well with whoever you are seeking to reach.
With every year that passes I am even more convinced about the value of communication skills, especially in my profession as a solicitor.
One of the constant criticisms I read and hear about in relation to the ordinary person’s interaction with his/her solicitor is the lack of, or poor, communication.
Yet in all the CPD courses I see available during the year, and the various courses organised by the Law Society, I do not recall too many dealing with this topic.
If you are a solicitor, or even if you are not, the ability to communicate well with your audience will give you a huge edge.
And the tools of communication are myriad nowadays, especially online. Why not use them?
