Public Relations is About Communicating
Communicating with others can be
challenging. This is especially true during an interview with a prospective
client. Take time to prepare yourself for this important conversation by
following these tips:
·
Get to know the person you will be talking to. This
can help ensure a more meaningful dialogue.
·
Become comfortable with silence. Take a few
moments to pause and think before answering question.
·
Practice flexible listening. When having a
conversation with someone it is essential that you listen to what is being
said. Take in and understand the information you are being given.
Having conversations that allow for
personal exchange, thoughtful answers, and active listening will minimize
misunderstandings and confusion about client expectations and yours. You will
both be able to make better decisions that will keep the information flowing as
smoothly as possible. It’s also important to approach communication opportunities with a winning attitude.
