TEACHING AS LEARNING

PART TWO

Leadership Communication

DSTV

• DICTION: the words you use

​

• STATEMENTS (questions)

​

• TONE: (firm vs angry)

​

• VOLUME (loud vs soft)

The Power of “Q”

• Statement: “Please explain to why…”
• Question: “Why did you choose to…”

​

• Questions seek understanding

​

• Understanding leads to solutioning

​

• Questions turn potential conflicts into conversations
