"13
Master Communicators Have Been Summoned Together To Remind Us Why
Communication Is The Most Important Business Skill In The 21st
Century..."
Hi my name is Jed
Reay and I'm the author and creator of:
"Why
Can't We Say What We Mean: Developing Meaningful Business
Relationships Through Effective
Communication".
Recently, I sought out some of the
world's top communicators to participate in a conversation about
communication in the 21st century.
The reason why I did this
is because over the past 5-7 years I've noticed a shift amongst our
society AND amongst my business colleagues that has troubled me.
Have you ever gotten an email, a voice
mail, live telephone conversation, or even a live face to
face conversation with someone and afterwards you got the
feeling that you had just been slimed by the ghost buster
gun.
You have no idea if you were understood
or if your message was even delivered.
Have you had that conversation with
someone and you know they did not hear a word you said, all
they were concerned with was their own agenda?
Well, I Had
Enough!!
We must begin
again.
The internet is a massive communication
tool - the most astounding discovery and revolution the
world has ever seen.
Yet as we take part in this
massive communication process - I've noticed that slowly the
people who I communicate with on a day to day basis were
"getting lost".
Now, I'm an old school guy and
I love to talk belly to belly, face to face with people.
In fact I spent my entire life
building businesses doing just that (COMMUNICATION).
My businesses relied SOLELY on the ability to communicate,
and whether you know it or not
YOURS DOES TOO!
I started building businesses
at the age of 12 and now 15 businesses later and 39 years of
experience, I have to share this experience with you.
I was able to watch this massive movement
from human touch and interaction to people starting to use
technology to simplify their lives.
And that's when the human communication gap
began to disintegrate.
I realized that we have a great
and honored responsibility to USE this technology with
respect.
It is ironic, that the advances in
communication, with the introduction of
blackberrys, iphones, and laptop computers
with broadband, will not improve our ability to communicate
if we...
DO NOT TAKE A PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for our
own personal involvement.
Since then I've been nicknamed "Jed the
Communicator" because of my ability to
USE technology
AND communicate
MORE
EFFECTIVELY.
And unless you
master and use these techniques,
YOU'RE LEAVING MONEY
ON THE TABLE FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SCOOP UP AND SPEND ON THEIR
DREAMS.

FIRST.
The
value of these interviews to me is
the consistency of the information

Communication -
The imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or
information by speech, writing, or signs.
We have always heard that at the end of the day we are in a
people business, or maybe you have heard "The customer is always
right".
Jed's book is masterful in helping anyone acquire
the tools to have meaningful relationships with their prospects,
customers, or business colleagues.
This book will help you understand the important
aspects of connecting in any realm, including the new web2.0

is traditional to network marketing. This is relationship

personal level, a relationship level, in the information age.
