The effective communicator requires many skills, along with awareness, presence and the intention to understand both self and others.  Being available for a relationship in the present moment, showing up as your authentic self, and giving your attention to the processes within you and between yourself and others are important components of real contact.  However, you can never predict the outcome of your interactions.  With the best intentions, you may be misunderstood.  When you speak your truth, you may be rejected.  The best kinds of contact happen when all of those involved have a true desire to understand as well as to be understood.  By letting go of attachment or reactivity and preconceptions, you can enter a neutral place of mirroring the other person as the unique person that he is now.  This is radical respect. By dropping your agenda and beliefs about this other person, you can open a door to a new place full of potential and change.  This manual helps you in developing and enhancing your verbal and non-verbal personal and professional communication skills.
