Leadership Competency #2

Basics of Communication - 6/8

NOTE: This module draws from my earlier work under Black Market Leadership. The ideas here predate Chaos Studies in Leadership and form the foundation that made this work possible.

This video explains the biggest trap in communication: most people speak in descriptions, not definitions. Descriptions are perceptual—true observations and examples—but they don’t identify what makes a concept distinct. Definitions are conceptual—they isolate the essential elements that give a topic its specific nature and boundaries.
