From This Episode
Host Mark Magnacca: “What is the most important skill that people should learn or improve today?”
Marc McNamara: “Communications. Organizations today lose about $28,000 annually per employee of lost productivity due to poor communications. That’s on selling, and that’s internal, as well.
“It’s huge. We’re in a knowledge economy. We’re [also] in a service economy. If we don’t communicate efficiently and effectively, what does it do? It’s lost productivity, it’s lost opportunity.
“I can think of so many times, particularly for salespeople, how many opportunities have been lost because they haven’t been able to communicate their value effectively to the customer.”
