In a time when social media, online dating, and electronic communication are typical aspects of life, effective communication skills have become more critical than ever, primarily in the Air Medical field. Have you ever asked yourself, "Why am I getting dumped" or "How much is the way I am communicating, or not communicating, costing me? (or our program and the patients we serve)?"
That question, Gene helps to bridge for air medical professionals. In this powerful presentation, he shares the value of learning to use the tools we have personally and externally to master the art of communicating. Our ability to communicate with each other and the comm center is vital for smooth operations.
Most of our professional and personal life experiences are based around relationships, and those relationships affect the quality of our industry and life. When you learn verbal and non-verbal communication skills in depth, you build deeper connections with others. The better you get at using your tools, the better quality of life you'll have.
