If you were to ask somebody you know, “What’s the one thing you’d like to see improved upon in your business, or friendships, or marriage, or __________?” there’s one answer you’re going to hear more than any other.
Communication.
“In my line of work, I’d like there to be more open communication with my superiors.”
“My friends and I are so busy we hardly have time to just sit and talk anymore.”
“In my marriage, I feel like my wife and I sometimes miss what each other is trying to say.”
Well, we have — not one, but two — opportunities for married/engaged couples to learn some new tools to grow in healthy communication skills.
