16. Doing The “Work”
4 Steps to Communication
The Turnarounds:
1.Is it true
2. Can you absolutely know that
it’s true
3. How do you react, what
happens, when you believe that
thought? Does that thought bring
stress or peace into your life?
4.Who would you be without the
thought? What do you see? What
would your life look like without
that thought?
A statement that can be turned
around to the self, to the other,
and to the opposite.
For example:
“He” should understand me
turns around to:
• I should understand me. (to
the self)
• I should understand “Him.”
(to the other)
• “He” shouldn’t understand
me. (to the opposite)

Slide 5: Why should your audience listen to you: Every relationship requires communication in order to flourish; every person requires communication to be able to express themselves, as well as be understood. Daily life requires communication in order to be productive.
Slide 6: Call to adventure: Communication can make any relationship, either personal or work-related, flourish or become frustrating and detrimental for individual emotional and mental health. Proper communication and techniques can build trust and respect between individuals or groups, and allow individuals to be able to present their ideas in a way that is both positive and inspirational.
Slide 7: Preview of the three main points that will support your big idea: Most people go throughout their lives not thinking about communication; 1) Understanding communication, both verbal and non-verbal can help a person become more self-aware, and in turn become a better communicator. 2) Communication at work can be a tremendous asset for both the employee and the company. 3) Communication in your personal relationships allows for a sense of trust, respect, and a connection based on understanding instead of expectations.
Slide 8: Supporting Point 1: Understanding Communication

Slide 14: Supporting Point 3: Communication in relationships (Upkins Jr., L. (2009).)
Slide 15: Talking without expectations
Slide 16: “The Work” (Byron Katie)
Slide 17: Call to Action: examine either one of your workplace relationships, or a personal relationship that you think needs work by the quality of that relationship based on types of behavioral communication and “the work.” Use positive communication techniques for 1 week to see if your relationship becomes more peaceful/productive/positive
Slide 18: Summarize the main point: Effective communication can be a positive change for any struggling relationship. 1) Self-awareness of your own communication can lead you to experience an improved mental state that is less about anger and frustration and more about being concise, understood, and peaceful. 2) Workplace communication can be an effective way of improving productivity and efficiency within the company, as well as aiding in overall employee satisfaction. 3) Communication within personal relationships can make or break the relationship (happy wife, happy life). Taking steps in improving communication between you and your partner can lead to a more balanced life with less times spent arguing over trivial problems. It also enables fast and effective discussions about actual issues. This promotes trust and respect within relationships.
Slide 3: Big Idea: With accurate communication in relationships, we enable ourselves with the possibilities of happiness and peaceful conduct.
